Hi,
I just wanted to check the ally rules. I have to nice
size space marine armies (Ultra Marines and generic
Marines). I f I play them together would one army have
to constitute 75% of the force and the other 25% or
could I split them any way I wish. I understand if it
is Space Wolves or Dark Angels because they in
themselves have a lot of different/special units like
the Raven Wing, death Wing, long fangs etc...
My other question is a house rule we pplay whereas
after CC is resolved you are allowed to move survivors
into combat with enemy survivors who are 1 cm away.
This cuts down on some of the Adv. Firing of some of
the more shooty armies. If they are that close then
they are in CC technically for the next turn.
