I guess all Marine armies then...... But they should probably only be used
when faceing Tyranids? Am I Right Jyrki?
You know, we have currently 4 complete chapters for the space marines.
We should be able to make rules for som more of the known chapters.
White Scars, Imperial Fists, Black Templars and Salamanders for instance....
Anyone up for it? We could perhaps do one chapter each?

So which Marine armies can field them? Just Crusade armies? Or are they
bought using the allies point allocation?
Tom.
