Forget Monstrum Arcanum completly. That doesnt matter. The book where something is published in doesnt matter AT ALL. Only keywords matter. 

 

Everything with keyword KHORNE can be part of a Khorne army/allegiance. A Chaos Warrior with the Mark of Khorne, Skarbrand and the FW Blood Thirster are all equaly part of a Khorne force. 

Same goes for every other Keyword like SKAVENTIDE or GLOOMSPITE GITS. 

You can find that in every Battletome at the start of the allegiance part where they define what keywords determine your allegiance. 

Ok.  I'm found it in Corebook-> Allegiance Abilites p242: "An army can have allegiance to a
faction instead of a Grand Alliance
if all the units in the army have the
keyword for that faction, including
any units that you assign a keyword
to during set-up. For example, if
all of the units in an army have the
STORMCAST ETERNAL keyword, then the army can have allegiance to
the Stormcast Eternals faction, and
would be referred to as a Stormcast
Eternal army."

...and thanks for your help Gecktron.

Adding to that: Monstrum Arcanum is not an faction. It doesnt matter where the rules are coming from. All that matters are the keywords. Everything that has (or can get) the KHORNE keyword can be part of a Blades of Khorne army. 

First of all, thanks 4 the quick answers

@Gecktron:And this equal to, the part of the Blades of Khorne Allegiance, right?

From GH2019 (Pitched Battle Profiles): "ALLIES
At the end of each Grand Alliance
section you will find an Allies table
that lists the eligible allies for the
factions that belong to that Grand
Alliance. A unit that has any of the
keywords listed on the Allies table
on its warscroll can be taken as an
allied unit by an army from that
faction. For example, a Stormcast
Eternals army can take any unit
with the ORDER keyword as an
allied unit."

The Question is: That unit/model which share with the same Keyword, for example: Mazarall the Burcher from Monstrous Arcanum is part of the Blades of Khorne Allegiance AND Army?

....Or Colossal Squig to Gloomspite Gitz OR Skaven Warlord on Brood horror to Skaventide army...and so on, remain part of the Allegiance. Not an ally or whatever else, because M.A. not a faction neither in Matched Play.

Where (page) can I find this rule in up2date GH2019 or/and official Corebook?

Hello Wargammers,

At least one question unclarified (for me):

Is it correct, if i hire for example Mazarall the Bucher or a(n) (Forgeworld) Exalted Greater Daemon of Khorne (Monstrous Arcanum units, see Pitched Battle Profile) for a Blades of Khorne army (contain other models only with mark/keyword of Khorne); - meaning the Khorne Allegiance entirely unavailable, but instead must be used the general Grand Allegiance Chaos rules in Matched Play? 
---
The "Monstrous Arcanum" not an ally and any unit not to be a mercenary to BOK, right? Furthermore: mercenary units don’t count to your allegiance, can’t be your general, cannot use or benefit from your allegiance abilities and can’t be a named character and in pitched battle, your allies points allocation must be shared between allies and mercenaries. 

(In 2018 Blades of Khorne battletome Allegiance: wrote this: "If all the starting units and warscroll battalions in your army follow KHORNE  - including any units that you assign the Khorne keyword to during set-up - then your army has the KHORNE allegiance.")

Its - above - relevant now, in GH2019?

Thanks,

Agis
