Deamons and CSM in Apocalypse

[Uhric_Duval]

Just some speculation, but something I had been thinking about.

 

Since Deamons and CSM will now be two separate armies, the only way to field them together is in an Apoc. game. So I got to wondering if the summoning rules in the CSM codex will work with the new Deamons, i.e teleporting near Chaos icons.

 

Or, since they are two different codexes, will the icons be list restricted? For example only the deamons weilding icons will be able to summon deamons from their own codex.

 

Any thoughts on how this will work out with what we know about the Deamon codex?

They have different codex, but are the same army. GW just wanted to give the CSM and Daemons an extended codex.

You can summon daemon from the CSM icons normally.

and this is based on what?

If the summoning rules just say "daemons" and not lesser daemon or greater daemon then you would by RAW be ok - however, Apocalypse isn't really about strict RAW, so if you want to summon them through Chaos SM (and I wouldn't see why you couldn't) Icons then just confirm it is ok with everyone. As its probably also not pick up and play, you should be able to agree this before hand as well, to avoid any last minute rethinks.
