Here is what I am wondering, if I take a 10 man term squad without a mark and then also have a chaos lord with MoK and a sorcerer with MoZ, would they be able to both join the term squad?

Yes, as the restriction on joining only applies to an IC mark, and the mark of the unit. Marks from one IC do not transfer over to the unit, so as long as the unit is unmarked, you can join it with dual marks.

thank you

However, once the first IC joins the unit, he is now part of that unit and so the unit has a Mark, albeit not on the entire unit.

Wouldn't that prevent the second IC from joining?

I do not know if that is how it should be, I am just adding food for thought.

He may be part of the unit, however the Mark special rules do not transfer over (unlike USR's which affect the whole unit), so the unit is still "unmarked" for purposes of joining.

To be pedantic, USRs do not transfer over at all. Some USRs only require single model in the unit to have them for them to affect the whole unit, but most don't.

So just wondering, since when an IC joins a unit he counts as part of that unit as a whole, does the not mean the unit now has a mark?
