AoS Starblood Stalkers and Koatl's Claw

[xoid]

As I read the rules all Seraphon units pick up the coalesced or starborne keyword to match your army, unless they have one on their ears roll, so the Starblood Stalkers will always be coalesced due to having coalesced and thunder lizard as keywords.

However the coalesced rule Coalesced Constellations says that if you take Koatl's Claw or Thunder Lizard all coalesced units in the army get that keyword. Does that mean if you take the Starblood Stalkers in a Coalesced Koatl's Claw list they lose Thunder Lizard and gain Koatl's Claw as a keyword?

Since this is a knew issue I'm not too surprised to not get an answer, as I doubt anybody really knows. Is there somewhere u can ask GW? I think it is possible that this comes up again if we ever do get heroes for Broken Realms.

I don't believe so? I believe it's an addition to Coalesced, as it doesn't replace Coalesced. Meaning they get Thunder Lizard standard and then you add KC? It could also be that you cannot add KC to their scroll, as TL is already present, but you can still include them in your army due to their inclusion rules.

no unfortunately they do not gain the key word and are stuck with no allegiance abilities. same as for the SCE unfortunately

Just curious is there some where that describes that? I believe you, just be nice to have the reference in pocket.

off the top of my head i think it's in the Storm cast FaQ and or erata but id have to go check.
mostly the rule is that if a thing is key word A it can't also be key word B and of you are not keyword B you don't get the benefits
