The new AM codex no longer includes demolition charges. I know Rough Riders can be taken from the Index, but how do I go about getting demolition charges back? Would I use the Special Weapons Squad out of the index and completely ignore its replacement in the codex? I have the Catachan models and would love to use them in conjunction with the Grenadiers stratagem.

Thanks-

I guess you could technically take the index version of sws in a separate detachment, but they won't gain the regiment rules traits.

Why wouldn't they? Everything GW has said is the exact opposite of that so long as they possess the relevant keywords.

Because in the same FAQ where they say you can use index entries for units that did not make it into the codex they also say you are expected to use the most recent dataslate that has been published for any unit.

Of course, in a firendly game you can ask your opponent if they would LET you use the old dataslate with the old options combined with the new rules. But that is on an opponent to opponent basis. It's the same thing as asking if I could use a deamon prince with my AM detachment because they are supposed to be renegade guard and can I use AM stratgems and doctrines with that detachment.

My opponent COULD say yes. But good fething luck. There are no rules to support it and there is no way for you to do it without the extreme generosity of your opponents.


These are my opinions. This is how I feel. Others may feel differently. This needs to be stated for some reason.
