'''Though all of the Space Marine Chapters are united by the strictures of the Codex Astartes, the teachings of their Primarchs run deep. Whether First Founding Chapters or recently established brotherhoods, all Space Marines feel the call of their genetic heritage. It is this, coupled with unique circumstances and proudly maintained martial doctrines that leads many Chapters to prosecute their wars in their favoured way.'''
The Chapter Tactics special rule represents a group of rules that are specific to a given Chapter. When choosing an army, you must make a note of which Chapter each unit with the Chapter Tactics special rule is drawn from when making a Space Marine Detachment. All models in the same Detachment or Formation must be drawn from the same Chapter. Once declared, all units in this detachment receive the Chapter Tactics (<Chapter>) keyword. For example, for an Ultramarines detachment, all models in this detachment receive the Chapter Tactics (Ultramarines) keyword.
All models drawn from a given Chapter benefit from that Chapter’s Chapter Tactics rules, as described below. The rules will often refer to a model, character or unit by its Chapter; in all cases, this refers to a model, character or unit with the Chapter Tactics special rule that is drawn from the given Chapter. If a unit contains models drawn from two different Chapters, it counts as from neither Chapter, and thus benefits from neither Chapter Tactic.
''For example, ‘an Ultramarines unit’ refers to ‘a unit with the Chapter Tactics special rule that is drawn from the Ultramarines Chapter.’ If an Ultramarines Tactical Squad is joined by an Imperial Fists Chaplain, it counts as neither an Ultramarines unit nor an Imperial Fists unit.''
