In Blood Reaver he fights with a Terminator squad, in Master of the Maelstrom he fights with a few different units (none of them including Valthex or Garreon), and in The Gildar Rift he also doesn't fight with a specific retinue (in fact Garreon never steps foot off the Wolf of Fenris).
So, in fact, Huron doesn't fight with a specific retinue of super friends hence why I am hoping it's not just a copy of a command squad or the Titus Friend Brigade.
And kindly don't assign emotions to me, we are having a discussion and my disagreeing with you doesn't automatically make me angry.
Gaunt's Ghosts almost never fight in the formation included in their box; the top three officers together with a scout and a sniper. We'll just have to learn to accept that GW just throws characters from a faction together into a box and calls it a command squad.
Same with the recent box of Ultramarine weirdos, sometimes having the models and unit is the best you're going to get and that's cooler than not having anything. Objectively until presumably later in the year red corsairs have more support than iron warriors, night lords, alpha legion, word bearers and weirdly black legion.
The Grotmas sheets for Dark Water have 0-1 per hero, meaning Kelthannor can be in pure Sylvaneth while the rest are Sigmar.
That's Legends for AoS of course, but if anything they can take a page from that if they wanna let players go for lore next who am I kidding? They were ALWAYS operating together in the books because matched play reasons....
