Not sure on multi-keyword factions.... Fielding them means either:

1) They are Imperium faction, so any Imperium detachment can include them as elites (so up to six Vindicaires (or Eversors) in a single Batllion detachment = the new better CAD))

OR

2) They are their own faction (Imperium | Officio Ass.) so the ONLY way to field them is as an Aux Support Detachment - which means only 1 assassin per detachment, and -1 CP with it.



Eversors, being the cheapest Assassins, can 8th ed Infiltrate with 9" in your first movement phase, and as I don't see any restriction to assaulting when coming out of the Concealment (he's not in "Reserve", since "Reserve" in 8th is a narrative mission special rule). He assaults 3D6", so with an average 10.5" assault range, and needing to only get 8" into combat, it's a more likely he'll be chomping on enemies with 8 attacks first turn!.... and you can have six of them!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/727365/9403215.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/727365/9403215.page GMT
All you need for being battleforged in 8th is that one faction keyword is shared by all units. You can slot an assassin into your otherwise all-space marine detachment.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/727365/9403222.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/727365/9403222.page GMT IIRC in 7th they weren't unique but you could only have one of each assassin per OA detachment. So to have three Vindicaires you'd need to chew through 3 detachments.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/727365/9403241.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/727365/9403241.page GMT
