OK, I have 1750 points (of DKOK that I use as reg Guard). I have 2 DHTs that'd make it a 2k list. But (if my reg gaming group doesn't allow it), how can I "justify" it? I have the IA that contains the info, can I just "attach" it to my army? It is a heavy, and has normal armor like a russ....nothing outrageous.....

This isn't a rules question. If your gaming group won't have it you won't get to use it. No amount of justification will save you from that.

Well, it kinda is.... Where is there a rule that I can, or can not, use an Imperial Guard Destroyer in my Imperial Guard list? It is a FW model (and that right there sets folks off), but the info is in IA that it is a guard tank for a guard army and a heavy choice of 1-3... Sooooo.....

There is no rule preventing you from using it. There is also no rule preventing people from refusing to play against it.

If your group allows FW and has no problem with using the units you'll be fine.
If, on the other hand they do not like it then you will either need to find a new place to play or not use them.

Greebo had spent an irritating two minutes in that box. Technically, a cat locked in a box may be alive or it may be dead. You never know until you look. In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.

Forgeworld is technically part of 40k. If your gaming group won't have it you should stop trying. You also don't need so many dots. Your comment doesn't omit more by having more dots in an ellipses.

The closest Justification you are going to get is IA1, Second edition pages 7, and 52.

But remember that Page 7 even tells you that while the unit in question is intended to be used with normal 40k, you should make sure your opponents are ok with it.

This is my Rulebook. There are many Like it, but this one is mine. Without me, my rulebook is useless. Without my rulebook, I am useless.
Stop looking for buzz words and start reading the whole sentences.

Ah, there it is! Thanks, that was the sentence I needed! Yes, my group is aware of my intentions...

On moon miranda.

If anyone's going to get their panty's in a wad over a Destroyer Tank Hunter, they're probably not much fun to play with anyway

The correct pronunciation is Imperial Guard and Stormtroopers, "Astra Militarum" and "Tempestus Scions" are something you'll find at Hogwarts.

I wonder how they will react when the 7e FoC rumors come to fruition.
