Khorne berserkers, as an example, have <legion> keyword and not pre set to World Eaters. I assume this is so you can have them as black legion but what is to stop me having them as Emperors children?

The FAQ and codex v2 state:

"Page 116 – <Mark of Chaos>
Add the following to the last paragraph:
‘If a unit has the Tzeentch, Nurgle or Slaanesh keywords, it
cannot be from the World Eaters Legion, and if a unit has the
Khorne, Tzeentch or Nurgle keywords, it cannot be from the
Emperor’s Children Legion. In addition, Psykers cannot be from
the World Eaters Legion.’"

Beat me to it, nothing in the book restricts you but the FAQ does.

Ok thanks where are these FAQs.

I’m actually building a creations of bile army so at the minute it looks like I can take whatever I want
