And I suppose "useful" and "powerful" are somehow mutually exclusive? How
absurd.

Incidentally, I dont' care if someone wants to use these powers, but the
first time they show up with a SW terminator stand w/ heavy weapons, White
Scar infantry, a DA Ravenwing, and a BA death company they're gonna get some
dice up their bung. If you want to use special abilities froma particular
chapter, then you better stick with the chapter exclusively, i.e. no White
Scar infantry supported by Ultramarine armor detachments.
