Hi has anyone bought the chaos cultists from BSF and use the in 40k? The GW website says that the rules for using them in 40k can be found in BSF:escalation, which I can’t find on their website. How good are these rules, they must be different from codex CSM looking at the weapons the miniatures have

you get traitor guardsmen with a fixed euqipment, (better SV)

you get alot of GEQ melee specialists.

mostly meh,
there are some interesting units in there, the psykers and the negavolts are quite decent.

If you use all the Blackstone Fortress and oddball expansion units you can technically make a new army with their own keyword faction. Is it great? Well, no. However if you want a couple cool units that can synergize a bit that can also be CP generators for Chaos it can kind-of work.

Rc and r&h do co better though

There is a mini dex in the main box for using your models in 40k. Same as the stuff in Rogue Trader last year. Not particularly good competitively though. Shame as they're lovely models.
These were a4 size pamphlets though so I imagine they don't fit in the box sets for just the traitor guardsmen/cultists. Perhaps the rules are in the same bit as the build instructions but I can't confirm this.
