40K 8th Edition and Factions

[Homer S]

Hello All!

I thought I would post some information regarding Faction selection in the 8th Edition files.

If you have a Codex, says Space Wolves, you probably won't see them at the top level. But start with the biggest faction and drill down. For our Space Wolves example, Select "[Imperium] Space Marines" as the top level faction. Then in "Click to choose rules" you can drill down to select one or more named Legions such as Space Wolves or Ultramarines. You can even choose to include them in a single army.

If you want to activate Faction Specific rules in your Battle Forged army, place only Space Wolves in a Detachment (by dragging and dropping) and select a Space Wolves Warlord. Then things like Space Wolves relics, rules and strategems will be available.

Happy Gaming!
