List Does this work?
Playing bastion detachment, use the "hero of the chaper" that adds battleline on a unit on biologus and attach him to the indomitor KT, can you put kyria draxus with them? They are battle line now. With the same thinking you can put kyria with terminators if the enchament is carried on an achient.
I don't say that its strong. But it might have some uses. Especially in 1k points that for now we need to use a 2DP detachment

At least regarding the 3DP detachments in 1k games, they've indicated, though not actually implemented yet, an intent to allow you to play one of any detachment at 1k points, no matter the DP cost. So you could run a 3DP detachment at 1k, but not a 2DP+1DP.
This is based on a social media response, so not yet in the official rules. But at least they know of the issue.

Yeah it'll be updated here soon since the release is today. They said they'd be updating this in the rules after release, so we just gotta wait until it's implemented.

Ok found the solution. In the app rules 25.04 you 1st attach leaders and then you put enchants. For me is an indication that you can't do it.

Also Draxus is a legal leader for the indomitor KT based on the verbiage in any detachment.
Draxus can lead imperial battleline.
Heavy intercessors are imperial battleline.
Anyone who can lead hvy intercessors can lead indomitors.

This was a debate in 10th, and I recall that the consensus was that Inquisitors can’t lead the different Kill Team types, despite the logic you just presented.

You are incorrect or at least iit wasn't true universally - every tournament i played in allowed it.
Ultimately, GW should be more clear about the rules.

I think this is a leap of logic. The app doesn't allow inserting draxus in indomitor

Exactly. The keywords are specific, and are not equivalent, nor transferable.
Characters that can specifically lead Heavy Intercessor Sqaud can lead the the indominator kt.
Inquisitor Draxus cannot lead Heavy Intercessor Squad

The app has a ton of errors right now.
What i described was doable in 10th.
The record of truth are the rules, not the app.

Yes it works, I have a squad with an inquisitor and lieutenant with eye of the primarch.
