Is there a way to field 2 assasins with 1 detachment? Way I want my army I can’t field 3, and 1 seems like not enough.

**Arson Fire**

You can bring one assassin in an aux detachment, and a second one using the Operative Requisition Sanctioned stratagem.

**BoomWolf**

Highly inefficient though.

Basically, it's one or awhile bunch, two is problematic.

To quote my post on the previous thread on the matter:

No, there are ways of taking between 0 and infinity assassins if you so wish. The deal with 0,1 or 4 is that those are the "optimal" ways of taking assassins. If you want to take 2 Vindicares in Matched Play, you either need two Auxiliary Support Detachments with one Vindicare each; or one Auxiliary Support Detachment with a Vindicare, 85 Reinforcement Points, an IMPERIUM warlord and use the stratagem to spawn a second Vindicare.

So, in summary:
1 Assassin: Aux Support; or Stratagem.
2 Assassins: Two Aux Support; or Aux Support and Stratagem
3 Assassins: Special Vanguard (0CP); Three Aux Support; or 2 Aux Support and Stratagem
4 Assassins: Special Vanguard (0CP); Execution Force Vanguard (1CP); Four Aux Support; or 3 Aux Support and Stratagem

etc.

Question should be, Why does anyone want to bring 2? Which two are you using together that compliment each other? 2x Vindys? Because for 190pts and 2CP I can have a much better unit. Not to mention all the extra CP you will have to burn to get their strats off. I am debating running an SLAUGHTER.EXE (Execution force) with my Custodes this week, but I'm a little nervous they will just end up dead on turn 3. Never used them, will likely mis-use them.
