I looked through through the main rule section for the GT and couldn't find an answer.
Are non-codex units allowed. What I mean are units that were added later to the codex. i.e. zealots, and in particular Human Auxillary for the Tau?

Not listed not allowed. I would recommend attend the Warmasters event. They allow a lot of non-codex units. Here is the Warmasters event info: www.warmasterschallenge.com/ |

Not to much of a loss.
I had a good idea for them, but couldn't settle on a color scheme. Though I saw a couple good count as kroot, the one's I like the most were the catachan's, kinda fits. Except the kroot rifle.
1 less whole unit to have to paint. Still have a lot of painting to do before the big day

Yes, Since that is a official update to the codex, not a chapter approve unit.

Yes, Since that is a official update to the codex, not a chapter approve unit. But chapter approved stuff IS AN OFFICIAL UPDATE so why isnt this consistent? Why are some official updates official and others not? I am good either way with allowing or not allowing only the units in the codexes but the rule should be consistent and not. "Well i like the eldar so theirs is official but i dont like witch hunters so theirs isnt." (Not that human aux were ever chapter approved but other units have been.) |

We discussed this as a group; any chapter approved that has been updated or released after 5th edition was released, then that army or units are approved to be used. . Example: Night spinner |
