AoS S2D and Bloodstoker / Bloodsecrator

[Tilorn91]

Hi everyone, sorry for the strange topic question. Had a game recently where I was not certain if what the opponent was telling me is correct. A Slaves to Darkness list with Archaon and Varanguard with all marks of Khorne, can they benefit from warscroll buffs from the Stoker and Secrator? Does the mark provide the keyword needed?

I was under the impression that the only way those can work is to use Coalition rules for Blades of Khorne lists, not the S2D lists and using BoK support heroes. Any thoughts or insight?

AFAIK you must take the bloodsecrator as an ally, so:
- he cannot benefit from allegiance abilities,
- he will not have an aura of chaos ability so he won't have rerolling ones to hit or +1 to wound if he is near a character.

BUT his banner ability will still affect all near "khorne marked" units in your army.
