New AoS player, trying to figure this out. Idoneth don't have Lumineth listed as possible allies in the Tome, but that's obvious because they didn't exist. Does the fact that Lumineth can take Idoneth allies make the reverse possible? Or does the fact that it's not specifically listed mean you're out of luck?

I was looking into the same thing as I really wanted to add Eltharion to my fish elves but it seems that no you cant ally Lumineth into Idoneth.
GW did an article that would have been the perfect opportunity to errata it;

Maybe in the Morathi book it will change?

Nope. Currently you can only ally Idoneth into a Lumineth force, not vise versa.

But you can pick up one of those shiny new Mega-Giants (the Kraken Eater) for your sea elves!

Ally chart describes what you can take as ally. Not who can take you as ally. Unless GW errata's Idoneth's ally chart only stormcast with their own special rule can take lumineth allies.

Thanks for helping me figure it out. What a weird system.

Also bear in mind the new Morathi book as Idoneth ally DoK so any chance of that changing is probably null.
