Either go Unbound (Formations retain their special rules), or bring a CAD of the same Chapter and bring Drop Pods as Fast Attack.

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.

Thanks
So if I go unbound, will I still keep objective secured on the Demi Company in the sternhammer?

You wont get the bonuses from the sternhammer if you go unbound as the sternhammer is a detachment not a formation

Detachment with command benefits. Firmations are also detachments remember

Does it have the Formation logo on it's datasheet? If not, it's not a Formation and can't be used in Unbound. The Decurion style Detachments aren't Formations and can't be used in Unbound for this reason.

Which doesn't contradict what I said. Detachment command boni are lost in Unbound, a formations special rules are not. I was also clarifying that a formation IS a detachment, just a special one
