Non compulsory HQ and command squad

[Bythehololight]

Can I take a command squad for my non compulsory HQ choice?

While using my compulsory HQ with other squads?

 

Please and thank you

No, they cannot be taken on their own; you need either a Primarch, Praetor or other HQ unit that has the option to take a Command Squad to even include one in your list. The upside is, theyre their own unit and dont take up a slot.

 

Unless you're asking:

• Take Praetor
• Take a command squad with said praetor
• Attach other HQ to command squad, shove praetor somewhere else.

In that case, yes, you can.

Thank you for the reply Slip. I was not clear with what I was asking, so I will explain my situation.

I run a preator and a chaplain. Could I use my preator with one of my troop choices. And use the command squad with my chaplain?

yes

If i run a character model (siggy or polux) and another praetor both of who have Master of the Legion, can i take a command squad for both of them?

Yes but you need to be playing 2000 points minimum.

A delegatus can also take a command squad which is a bit cheaper.
