Is it still possible to mix different Chaos factions on the basis of for instance the Heretic Asertus keyword?

For example is this legal:

Ahriman

Foetid Bloat-Drone
Foetid Bloat-Drone
Foetid Bloat-Drone

Perfectly legal, you can use HERETIC ASTARTES to bind a detachment, but won't get any detachment bonuses.

On facebook people told me that this was not legal but as the FAQ only stated that the Chaos keyword couldn't be used.

Losing detachment bonuses for Ahriman and the drones is not such a big deal, at least I know that I will have the option to do this, thanks!

They probably thought the Drone didn't have HERETIC ASTARTES, and that you were trying to use CHAOS - which I would have thought, and would not have been legal. But BCB knows best.

It is legal, but the Beta Matched Play Rules forbid you using certain keywords, CHAOS included, to bind a single detachment.

Chaos can also be mixed in detachments using the Khorne, Tzeentch, Nurgle or Slaanesh keywords.
Chaos have by far the most shared keywords other then Chaos. But you have to adhere to specific subfaction keywords to get their abilities.
