Wood Elves and Wanderers same faction or not

[darkspear]

I am asking this for my wood elves but it applies to dwarves/dispossesed as well.

As you know there are wood elves units in the compendium that share the same "wanderers" keyword as the wanderers in Grand Alliance: Order.  If I take these wood units, do i count as having "Wanderers Allegiance" or is it a Grand Alliance Order army of Wood Elves and Wanderers.

I am asking this due to the battleline requirement in matched play.   If I could maintain wanderer allegiance despite fielding "wood elves" unit like glade riders, I can count my Sisters of the Watch as battleline.

I cannot find a clear answer in the General's handbook, please assist me.

As the points are listed separately for Wood Elves and Wanderers, I'd imagine the answer is no. But probably best to ask on the FB page.

In non-matched play for purposes of allegiance abilities, I'd imagine it'd be fine, btw.

This is fine for Matched Play, even though they're on different profiles they still have the same wanderers keyword which is what matters. Just in the same way they both have the Aelf or Order keyword.

Yeah it's all about the keywords.

The way I see it, if something shares the same keyword for the faction, i.e. Wanderers, it doesn't matter if it is listed somewhere else. Therefore until the actual Wanderers battle tome comes out, I would say adding old Wood Elves models into the army and still keeping the Wanderers faction (as long as the war scroll has the keyword Wanderer) is perfectly ok!
