I bet you would change your attitude if you or a loved one is ever falsely accused and end up spending time in jail. Anyway keeping inmates in jail beyond their sentence cost taxpayers additional money that is better spent elsewhere. A person whom has employment and has a family to support who is sentenced to a week in jail should not be there beyond that time! Besides people who are so judgmental about others are more than likely just as guilty of committing a crime but just never got caught! | 0 | en |

1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to an oxide superconducting wire and a method of preparing the same, and a cable conductor which is formed by assembling such oxide superconducting wires, and more particularly, it relates to an oxide superconducting wire which can carry a heavy current in ac application and a method of preparing the same, and a cable conductor which is formed by assembling such oxide superconducting wires.
2. Description of the Background Art
The principal feature of an oxide superconductor resides in that the same is in a superconducting state also at a temperature exceeding the liquid nitrogen temperature. Therefore, a wire consisting of such an oxide superconductor is expected for application to a superconducting device, as a material which can be used under cooling with liquid nitrogen.
The inventors have developed a tape-shaped Bi-based Ag-coated multifilamentary wire, which is prepared from filaments of an oxide superconductor with a stabilizer of silver. A Bi-based Ag-coated wire can be prepared by charging a metal pipe with raw material powder serving as a precursor for a Bi oxide superconductor, wire-drawing the pipe and thereafter repeating rolling and a heat treatment a plurality of times.
On the other hand, a multifilamentary wire can be prepared by charging metal pipes with raw material powder, wire-drawing the same, engaging a plurality of such wires in a metal pipe for forming a multi-filamentary substance, further wire-drawing the same and thereafter repeating rolling and a heat treatment a plurality of times.
Among such preparation steps, the rolling step is effective for improving the orientation of crystal grains in the Bi superconductor having a plate-type crystal structure, strengthening bonding between the crystal grains and improving the density of the filaments, and regarded as being indispensable for attaining a high critical current density in preparation of a Bi-based Ag-coated wire.
Further, the aspect ratio of a section of the wire is increased by this rolling, whereby the aspect ratio of a section of each filament is also increased. This is advantageous for growth of the plate-type crystals, and a high critical current density is consequently attained.
On the other hand, the heat treatment step for the purpose of sintering is also indispensable for forming the superconductor, attaining crystal growth and strengthening bonding between the crystal grains, since the oxide superconductor is ceramics.
The Bi-based Ag-coated wire which is prepared in the aforementioned manner is excellent in bending property and capable of preparing a long wire having a critical current density exceeding 104 A/cm2, and hence the same is expected for application to a superconducting cable or magnet.
In ac application of such an oxide superconducting wire, however, ac loss resulting from a fluctuating magnetic field in driving comes into question. In a cable conductor which is formed by assembling superconducting wires, on the other hand, there arises a new problem to be solved such as a drift phenomenon resulting from ununiformity between impedances of the wires, which cannot be caused in dc application. Due to a drift caused in such a manner, further, loss upon formation of the conductor is disadvantageously increased beyond the sum of ac loss values of strands.
As to such problems caused in ac application, various countermeasures have generally been studied in relation to metal superconducting wires, for example. In more concrete terms, countermeasures of arranging high resistance barrier layers around or between filaments, preparing an extra-fine multifilamentary wire from superconducting filaments, increasing the specific resistance of a matrix and the like are studied in order to reduce ac loss. In order to suppress a current drift by uniformalizing the impedances of the filaments or wires in a conductor for an ac magnet, on the other hand, countermeasures of twisting the filaments or wires, dislocating the wires or filaments and the like are studied.
In order to attain a heavy current, further, a countermeasure of further twisting primary stranded wires each prepared by twisting superconducting strands to attain a flat-molded multinary structure or the like is studied.
While a countermeasure of further twisting primarily stranded wires to attain a multinary structure or the like must be taken also in employment of the aforementioned Bi-based Ag-coated wire for ac application similarly to the metal superconducting wire, however, it is impossible to implement the aforementioned multinary structure through an oxide superconducting wire by a method which is absolutely identical to that for the metal superconducting wire. This is because a Bi-based Ag-coated multifilamentary wire indispensably requires rolling and sintering processes as described above, while no such rolling and sintering steps are required for preparing a metal superconducting wire.
Namely, it is difficult to twist wires of a Bi oxide superconductor after sintering, since the Bi oxide superconductor is ceramics which is weak against bending distortion. Even if such wires can be twisted, a high critical current density cannot be attained. Further, it is difficult to twist wires in which aspect ratios of sections are increased by rolling. Even if such wires can be twisted, a number of clearances are defined in the stranded wire as compared with that prepared by twisting round wires, and a high critical current density cannot be attained.
In order to solve the aforementioned problems, an object of the present invention is to provide an oxide superconducting wire which maintains a high critical current density and has a small current drift with small ac loss when the same carries an alternating current and a method of preparing the same, and a cable conductor which is formed by assembling such oxide superconducting wires.
According to an aspect of the present invention, an oxide superconducting wire is provided. This oxide superconducting wire is a flat-molded stranded wire which is formed by twisting a plurality of metal-coated strands consisting of an oxide superconductor, and is characterized in that the flat-molded stranded wire has a rectangular sectional shape, and a section of each strand forming the flat-molded stranded wire has an aspect ratio of at least 2.
Throughout the specification, the term xe2x80x9caspect ratioxe2x80x9d indicates the ratio of the thickness to the width in a cross section of the oxide superconducting wire.
Superconducting filaments provided in the strands can be brought into flat shapes having a high aspect ratio by setting the strands at an aspect ratio of at least 2. Consequently, a superconducting wire having a high critical current density can be obtained. In particular, the aspect ratio of the superconducting filaments is preferably around 10. The section of each strand preferably has an aspect ratio of not more than 20. It is difficult to increase the aspect ratio of the strands beyond 20 in case of twisting and molding the same.
According to the present invention, the strands are completely dislocated due to the twisting, whereby the impedances of the strands forming the stranded wire can be equalized to each other.
According to the present invention, further, the stranded wire has a rectangular sectional shape. Thus, the wire can be densely wound to be advantageously compacted when the same is applied to a coil or a cable.
Preferably, the metal coatings of the strands consist of silver or a silver alloy, and coating layers consisting of a material having higher resistance than silver are provided on the outer peripheries of the metal coatings.
Due to the presence of such coating layers, the strands can be prevented from bonding in the stranded wire, so that ac loss is effectively reduced.
The material having higher resistance than silver is prepared from a high resistance metal material or an inorganic insulating material, for example.
When no such coating layers consisting of a material having higher resistance than silver such as a high resistance metal material or an inorganic insulating material are present, metal matrices of silver or the like are so diffused during the heat treatment that the strands are disadvantageously bonded with each other, and hence bonding loss between the strands may be increased. The coating layers having higher resistance than silver effectively function to reduce such bonding loss.
The high resistance material is prepared from an Agxe2x80x94Mn alloy, an Agxe2x80x94Au alloy, or Ni or Cr having high resistance, for example.
On the other hand, the inorganic insulating material is prepared from an oxide insulating material such as MgO or CuO which is obtained by oxidizing Mg or Cu, for example. Bonding between the strands can be completely prevented by the coating layers consisting of such an insulating material. Further, the effect of dislocation is rendered further complete.
According to another aspect of the present invention, a method of preparing an oxide superconducting wire is provided. This method comprises the steps of preparing a stranded wire by twisting a plurality of strands each formed by metal-coating an oxide superconductor or raw material powder therefor, flat-molding the prepared stranded wire, and repeating rolling and a heat treatment of at least 800xc2x0 C. on the flat-molded stranded wire a plurality of times.
Namely, a plurality of round wire type strands each formed by metal-coating an oxide superconductor or raw material powder therefor, which are not sintered as wires, are prepared. Then, the plurality of strands are twisted for preparing a stranded wire. As to the number of twisted strands, three, seven or twelve strands can be twisted, for example.
This stranded wire is flat-molded and thereafter further rolled, whereby superconducting filaments having circular sections which are provided in the strands can be deformed in the form of flat plates having a high aspect ratio. The dimensions of the superconducting filaments are preferably within the ranges of 0.1 to 100 xcexcm in thickness and 1 xcexcm to 1 mm in width. In the flat-molding, the superconducting filaments can be simultaneously deformed by application of rolling loads from above and under the wire.
Thereafter the step of performing rolling and a heat treatment is carried out at least twice, whereby an oxide superconducting wire in which strands are completely dislocated in order to cope with application to an ac wire can be obtained.
According to the present invention, the respective filaments are subjected to twisting as well as rolling. In the inventive wire, therefore, the impedances of the respective filaments are uniformalized by twisting. Also when the wire carries an alternating current, therefore, the current can be uniformly fed to the respective filaments. Further, bonding currents between the filaments are suppressed for effectively reducing ac loss. When the surfaces of the strands are insulated, it is possible to further suppress the bonding currents and reduce the ac loss.
According to the present invention, the flat-molded stranded wire rolled and heat treated. Thus, a high critical current density can also be attained by strengthening grain bonding which is broken by distortion in formation of the stranded wire and regularizing disturbed orientation.
According to the present invention, further, it is also possible to prepare a flat-molded multinary stranded wire by further twisting a plurality of primary stranded wires each obtained by twisting a plurality of strands. As to the number of twisted stranded wires, nine primary stranded wires can be twisted, for example.
It is particularly important to carry out the twisting step a plurality of times, in order to attain the aforementioned effects when the number of strands which are twisted for the purpose of attaining a high capacitance is increased.
According to the present invention, further, a stranded wire may be prepared by stacking and integrating a plurality of tape-shaped strands with each other and thereafter twisting the same. Particularly in case of a silver sheath Bi 2223 superconducting wire, it is important to prepare tape-shaped strands for attaining a high critical current density. Twisting is simplified by stacking the tape-shaped strands with each other for reducing the aspect ratio of sections thereof and thereafter twisting the same, and characteristic deterioration caused by bending distortion or the like can be effectively prevented.
The strands can be integrated with each other by a method of heat treating the stacked strands and bonding the same with each other by diffusion of silver, a method of performing compression molding, or a method of stacking the strands in a flat pipe, for example. In case of a long wire, it is effective to wire-draw and twist the strands after integrating the same with each other.
The tape-shaped strands are preferably previously heat treated in advance of twisting. It is possible to reinforce grain bonding of the oxide superconductor for attaining a high critical current density by further performing a heat treatment after forming the oxide superconductor by this heat treatment and performing the step of twisting etc.
According to the present invention, the method preferably further comprises a step of previously coating the outer peripheries of the strands with a material having higher resistance than silver before twisting the metal-coated strands for preparing the stranded wire.
The coating layers consisting of a material having higher resistance than silver can be formed by a method of adding Ni or Cr of high resistance to the outer surfaces of the strands by plating, or a method of applying a solution in which powder of an oxide insulating material such as AlO3 is dispersed to the outer surfaces of the strands, for example.
Alternatively, coating layers consisting of a metal such as Mg or Cu may be formed on the outer peripheries of the strands so that these layers are thereafter oxidized to form coating layers consisting of an oxide insulating material such as MgO or CuO. In particular, excellent workability can be attained by performing an oxidizing step after the rolling of the stranded wire. Mg or Cu is richer in workability than MgO or CuO, and hence the stranded wire can be molded and rolled into a better shape by oxidizing the coating layers after performing twisting and rolling.
According to the present invention, the method preferably further comprises a step of previously coating the flat-molded stranded wire with a metal before rolling.
If the outermost layer of a flat-molded multinary stranded wire is so thin that superconducting filaments may be exposed through the subsequent rolling step, the stranded wire is preferably coated with a metal in advance.
Metal coating layers may be further formed on the outer peripheries of the strands which are coated with a metal such as silver or a silver alloy by performing metal coating on the surface of the flat-molded multinary stranded wire or engagement in a flat metal pipe.
According to the present invention, further, each strand is preferably a multifilamentary wire which is formed by embedding a plurality of superconductors in a metal matrix. Due to a plurality of superconducting filaments provided in each strand, flexibility of the wire is improved.
According to the present invention, the strands themselves are preferably subjected to twisting. Due to such twisting of the strands themselves, bonding loss and eddy current loss are reduced thereby reducing ac loss as a result.
According to the present invention, the method preferably further comprises a step of temporarily heat treating the flat-molded stranded wire before rolling. Workability in rolling can be improved by heat treating the flat-molded stranded wire at about 800xc2x0 C. for diffusion-bonding the strands with each other.
According to the present invention, further, a step of winding strands around a core of a flat-molded stranded wire and flat-molding the same is preferably repeated a plurality of times.
A wire having low loss and a high capacitance can be obtained by repeating flat-twisting/molding a plurality of times. Such a wire is effective as a material for forming a compact cable conductor having low loss and a high capacitance.
According to still another aspect of the present invention, an oxide superconducting cable conductor is provided. This oxide superconducting cable conductor is formed by assembling oxide superconducting wires on a cylindrical former. Each oxide superconducting wire is a flat-molded stranded wire which is formed by twisting a plurality of metal-coated strands consisting of an oxide superconductor. This flat-molded stranded wire has a rectangular sectional shape, while a section of each strand forming the flat-molded stranded wire has an aspect ratio of at least 2.
In a single-layer cable conductor formed by assembling oxide superconducting wires on a former in a single layer, for example, all strands are dislocated to occupy positions which are electromagnetically completely equivalent to each other, whereby current distribution in the conductor is so uniformalized that increase of ac loss caused by a drift can be prevented. When wires are spirally wound on a former, on the other hand, it is effective to form the conductor in a two-layer structure so that first and second layers are wound in opposite directions, in order to cancel a magnetic field component along the longitudinal direction of the conductor. Thus, a drift between the layers caused by impedance difference therebetween as well as following ac loss can be minimized as compared with a multilayer conductor, by forming the conductor in a single- or two-layer structure.
According to the present invention, as hereinabove described, a metal-coated oxide superconducting wire having a high critical current density which can transmit a current with los loss can be obtained.
According to the present invention, further, it is also possible to increase the critical current per wire beyond 100 A by increasing the number of stranded wires and the degree of twisting, i.e., the number of times of twisting, so that the inventive wire is usefully applied to an oxide superconducting cable or a superconducting magnet which is employed for carrying a high capacitance alternating current.
The foregoing and other objects, features, aspects and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description of the present invention when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. | 0 | en |

2. There were salary increases after the original levy. Perhaps you could put this in context?
3. That the previous levy was excessive to the point of the jail being unable to spend the money. Unless this is a distortion of the truth, this is very damning-- perhaps you could give context for the process of how the decision was made to reduce the levy last year? | 0 | en |

that bit where i might sound like an asshole (again)
there is a law in place in texas whereby if a school bus is stopped loading or unloading the little ones that red lights flash and stop signs pop out of the side of the bus and it is a SERIOUSLY hefty fine if you go around the bus in such situations. said laws/fines are in place for two reasons:
1. so survival-skill-challenged kids that run around the bus and into traffic survive their day to day, despite what darwinism teaches us about such individuals, so they can continue to breed trailer-park levels of offspring helping solidify idiocracy being more a documentary than a comedy.
2. to prevent assholes in bmws that are in a hurry from going around said buses and possibly taking out said children.
(and yes, i would be one of those assholes)
so here’s why morning sucks – 8:22. if we leave the house by then we beat the bus…if we don’t, we never seem to. what bus, you ask? the short bus (meant literally) that drops off a handicapped kid at os’s junior high. i don’t think she’s mentally challenged (i.e. she’s brighter than the aforementioned traffic targets) but she is PHYSICALLY challenged and bound to a wheelchair, which means one clear thing to me…
…HOMEGIRL CAN’T RUN OUT INTO TRAFFIC EVEN IF SHE WANTED TO.
for that matter, homegirl can’t run ANYWHERE. or run at all. totally sucks, but it is what it is.
and as a result, there is NO FUCKING NEED to bring the whole drop off lane to a halt while a mechanical robot platform gently lowers her and her chair onto the sidewalk. those things do NOT move fast. you also don’t need to keep us waiting while she rolls the fifteen feet to the cafeteria because, again, it’s not like the wind’s gonna catch her hat and she’s gonna dart into the lane to get it. and you sure as fuck don’t need to keep us there AFTER she’s in the school while you raise the platform back which, i should point out, could be done WHILE she’s rolling to the cafeteria since both move about as fast. it’s multi-tasking. look it up. | 1 | en |

Do you find typical "Women's Magazines" to be either stomach turning or pathetically laughable?
Does it frustrate you that a nutbar like Anne Coulter gets so much press, yet REAL women of substance get so little?
Are you sick of people who have confused objectifying women as sex symbols with female "empowerment"?
Are you tired of the walking wounded moping around expecting that the world owes them something because they are victims?
Do you find the likes of Michael Bolton and Kenny G. revolting?
Does the sight of an incredibly handsome man turn you off, because too many of them have room-temperature IQ's, and obnoxious or non-existent personalities?
Are you sick of lazy women who use emotional and sexual manipulation to get what they want instead of using their own brains and muscles?
Are you fed up with women who feel they HAVE to be in a "Relationship" in order to be whole, and will sacrifice their self-esteem and personal growth in order to avoid being on their own?
Are you tired of men and women who are emotional children, and won't accept responsibility for their actions or behavior?
Do you want to SMACK women who play "helpless" just to gain male attention and stroke male egos?
Have you run out of sympathy for your Female friends who continually whine about how awful MEN ARE, but then they keep dating the same kind of ASSHOLES, over and OVER, AND OVER AGAIN!?
Are you fed up with your Male friends who are looking to date a woman with the appearance of a supermodel, and yet they continually whine about how "women don't like nice guys - they only want good-looking assholes"?
Do the words "If you REALLY loved me...." turn your heart to ice?
Do you retch in response to "The Surrendered Wife" and do "The Promise Keepers" make your skin crawl?
Have you HAD IT with people telling you that you are TOO LOUD, TOO ASSERTIVE, or TOO OPINIONATED?
Do you wish you had a button that said: "Thank you for sharing, now SHUT UP and quit Whining!" ?

Horror isn't complicated. You find out what makes your audience uncomfortable and present it to them in the most unsettling way possible. This is why horror movies aimed at young males contain vague allusions to homosexuality -- it's what makes that audience nervous.
So, if you have a country scared that communists are secretly infiltrating society, you give them 1956's Invasion of the Body Snatchers. If you have a nation coming off a recession and spiraling violent crime rates in 1980, you give them Friday the 13th.
And if your country is terrified of people with dreadlocks, you make Predator.

Which Brings Us to the Rape
But Alien? It's all about rape.
And not just the one Joss Whedon wrote.
Oh, we're not joking. Our goal isn't to paste a bunch of out-of-context shots or lines of dialogue to make some spurious case. We'll let Alien screenwriter Dan O'Bannon spell it out himself:
Continue Reading Below Advertisement
"One thing that people are all disturbed about is sex... I said 'That's how I'm going to attack the audience; I'm going to attack them sexually. And I'm not going to go after the women in the audience, I'm going to attack the men. I am going to put in every image I can think of to make the men in the audience cross their legs. Homosexual oral rape, birth. The thing lays its eggs down your throat, the whole number.'"
Hearing this man utter the words "I'm going to attack them sexually" is more terrifying than all the Alien movies combined.
Continue Reading Below Advertisement
That's from the Alien Saga documentary.
At the time, O'Bannon was coming off Dark Star, a comedy directed by horror luminary John Carpenter. Dark Star wound up being as big a disaster as a boy scout selling candy in a village of werewolves, so for revenge O'Bannon vowed to make a movie that would allow him to rape movie-going audiences right under their noses. | 1 | en |

Shew! It’s been far too long since we had the opportunity to cover our very favorite parody on Twitter, Sean Spicier. A Twitchy feed without stories about this guy (or gal) seems just wrong, doncha think?
Luckily, Sean took it upon himself to enrage a good many Leftists by tweeting about the House Judiciary Committee interviewing John Dean of all people, a dig at whiners complaining that the Trump administration refused to fly the Pride flag at embassies, and of course, good ol’ Russian collusion.
You’d think by now these sad, silly people would have figured it out but … they’re sad and silly for a reason.
Wow, this person was so angry over Sean’s tweet that he or she forgot how to spell the words ‘you’ and ‘and’. Ok, fine, it was probably a character limit thing but admit it, this seems like someone yelling just to yell, right?

Teacher aides in special education classrooms need to be properly trained in how students with various disabilities respond to specific stimuli and how to deal with students who are off task. As I originally suggested, the aide involved needs more training...both in the understanding of autistic behavior and how to respond to it. I did not say she was a bad person, just someone who needs more training. If she did not get that training she ought to be complaining to the district and her union. Disabled students do not bear the responsibility for the classroom environment, as well as the responsibility to ensure that federal law is being followed. Ultimately, it is the ASD that bears that responsibility. For those who are interested and have a whole lot of time, the relevant law is called the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act. It is very long, but is the primary governing document for US schools when it comes to dealing with disabled students. | 0 | en |

"Sometimes, chief of staff Dr. Ellen Mangione said, veterans would rather wait for a familiar face at the VA than be seen more immediately by a doctor outside the system, even when given the choice to do so."
Really, a familiar face. A friend of mine has seen 3 different doctor's on his last three appointments with the VA who were not the physicians he was scheduled to see.
The "21.6 days" wait to see a surgeon is an improvement considering in 2014 this same friend had to wait 65 days to see a surgeon, only to be told the surgery could be done in 8 months.
If Congress, their families and staff had to use the VA things would be different. Unfortunately the VA is a glaring example of a program run by incompetent bureaucrats, a program where people actually die as the result of their incompetence. | 0 | en |

Wyches aren't utter crap. Mandrakes still aren't the melee from the shadows that fluff makes them out to be, but at least they're better than warriors in melee now. Everything is faster. When a Raider explodes, it doesn't murder a large number of the embarked warriors anymore, and they're tougher to begin with. PFP no longer has overlapping rules with Coven units. Putting heavy weapons in a Scourge squad isn't pants on head stupid any more. There's actually a reason to use the demiklaive. Scourges are looking fantastic and it makes sense to use heavy weapons with them now. Half the armies in the game aren't immune to phantasm grenades any more. My three pack of Ravagers will be seeing the light of day again.
Basically, a lot of models and weapons which were relegated to the dustbin have become worthwhile.
The bunch of 7+ saves on models which have an invul save is... weird, but hey.
I could keep going if you like... :-p

No, I´m fine. You are right with all of that except the phantasm grenade launcher. I think it´s a stupid weapon. I´d prefer to kill an enemy, that counts as lowering the enemy leadership by one, too!Or maybe, if the enemy leadership would be lowered for every hit of it, to a maximum of three. Something like that.
Well. It´s only 3 points on the bright side so maybe I´ll still use it.
I've seen a few people say similar things about Wyches but what exactly about them is not crap now? They are slightly more survivable in that most stuff wounds them on 3+ rather than 2+ now and they might actually take an armour save every now and then. But their Dodge save is still Fight phase only, their FNP is now half as effective, their damage output is still just about zero, their special weapons are bland and inoffensive (a real drawback in a weapon) and their special ability is pretty naff as it's a simple roll off and not influenced by any other factors, like a buff for x number of models in the unit or having a Succubus nearby.
In short, what is it that isn't utter crap now?
_________________You have been weighed, you have been measured, and you have been found wanting. In what world could you possibly beat me?
How about hitting on a 2+ by turn 3? Or re-rolling to charge turn 2? Or having a Succubus with the unit allowing them to essentially auto-hit turn 3? Not saying they're fantastic but they certainly have better offensive synergies than they used to.
I'm more than a little disappointed with the amount of 2+ to hits everywhere. A Succubus hits on a 2+ as equally as a Haemunculi does and the Haemonculi is better at it! With more attacks and a straight up better weapon (Electro-corrosive whip is exactly the agoniser with dmg 2), 5+ invul at all times and T5. <- That's just not right.

This is really a similar mechanic to how Furious Charge works now. Wyches are supposed to be in combat Turn 2. They already have a re-roll to charge, turn one, and honestly, hitting on a 2+ isn't that great when your hitting with the strength of two-weeks-waterlogged pasta. The fact of the matter is that with 2 6+ saves at best they won't be surviving long enough to reap the full benefit of power from pain.
I could see keeping a squad in a raider in reserve for a late game charge out of deep strike, but whoops, nope, with no webway portal, and no deep strike on our transports, that's out too.

From the way the dodge rule is written they don't get a save against pistols in close combat. And they lost haywire grenades. The free hekatrix and cheaper and (kinda) better agonized is the real buff. The boss lady was always the one doing the killing anyways.

But they still do no damage! It doesn't matter how many times you hit if your hits don't do anything! 30 attacks on the charge, hitting on 2+ and rerolling misses and they still only kill 3 marines!

I'm confused about a line in the rules that says
A detachment may require all models to be from the same faction. A SM captain has the imperium and adeptus astartes factions. So every other unit in his detachment must have the imperium faction or they must all have the adeptus astartes keyword.
Does that mean the imperium (and aeldari) can just make massive cluster piles?
I ask because the ynnari characters have only the ynnari and aeldari keywords but are given a special rule to allow them to ride drukhari and asuryan transports. So they can be taken in those armies clearly but the only way that's true is if (aeldari) is enough of a faction to count as all from the same faction. | 1 | en |
