Editing Warhammer 40,000/Xenos in 30k (section)

=== Unique Units ===
In general, all units with the (Unique) subtype are not included as available options in 30k games, as 40k characters were usually not around during the Great Crusade (there are exceptions).

However, Forge World has generally encouraged the idea that, across a whole galaxy and over a 10,000-year timespan, there will be individuals capable of roughly similar performance at the scale of an individual 40k game or even campaign. As several characters bring certain benefits that allow playstyles for armies which can’t be replicated without them, in some cases they recommend that, with a different name and maybe a customized model, you can include a “version” of a character that exists from a different publication. That recommendation won’t be extended in this case, as there are a lot of variables that makes playtesting much harder and so Unique characters aren’t generally factored into balancing efforts, although obviously you can do so in any game where your opponent agrees.
