i played 40k back in the late 90s (dark angels dont remember the edition) and i just recently started back up. the 5th edition DA codex rules are broken.. some how one of the oldest chapters has the weekest hq units and least avalibility of special weapons and units of all the SMs(yes im a little jaded about that)
so i will not use the DA codex until it hopefully gets fixed in the next edition.
so im building a SM army using the SM codex. i want to create my own chapter using these rules.
my question is can i use special characters like cpt. shrike in my army even though im not the ravenguard or brother-sgt kronus if im not the ultra marines??? for turnaments???
