Editing Warhammer 40,000/7th Edition Tactics/Dark Angels (section)

===Forge World Units===
It has to be noted that the new codex ''(and by extension the vanilla codex too)'' is NOT conducive to fielding units from Forge World at all, at least until FW come out with some sort of FAQ or update to help with the situation. None of the Formations that the Dark Angels use have provision for taking them and neither of the new Ravenwing/Deathwing FOCs actually allow you to take anything either. ''(except for the Lucius Pattern Drop Pod as a dedicated transport option)''. 

However, those of us with Forge World units need not feel trapped with models we cannot use.

The Combined Arms Detachment hasn't actually gone anywhere, you could easily field a secondary CAD separately from your Lion's Blade Strike Force and give yourself lots of free slots to further customise your army. Furthermore, with the price drop on Scouts and the fact that they gain no specific rules when used as 10th Company Support in the Lion's Blade formation, you can take those Scout squads and a HQ of your choice and use them to fulfill the minimum requirements of a CAD without interfering with the points you would have already spent anyway, only losing Supreme Fire Discipline and giving them back Objective Secured ''(only the Demi-Company units get Objective Secured)''.
