By your example though, it would only matter if there was a rule that effected "vampire models" in the vampire hunter model's faction. Most of the time it doesn't mean anything, but like others said it works for anything that's tagged as "Bane" for example. Yeah, most of the time key words don't matter, but there's always potential. If Eyriss is a Mage Hunter, she could in theory have had a rule that she gains extra damage against Mages. If she did, then she would also automatically gain extra damage against herself, since she is per definition a Mage, per the all-inclusive keyword rule. I just find that kinda funny.

That would make for a very annoying mirror match lol

Because different casters in different factions get different rules. Also as others have pointed out Kozlov had a spell for knockdown immunity. You mean, because Cryx gets all of the rules?

An interesting example of this is Durst, and his interaction with Dartan Vilmon and the Champion of the Order of the Wall and the rules that they each grant. Durst's title is as following;
Anson Durst, Rock of the Faith Protectorate Paladin Warcaster
The Champion grants Girded to Durst, because Durst has 'Paladin' in his name, and the Champion grants girded to friendly Paladin models.
Dartan Vilmon's Elite Cadre is Righteous Vengeance, that he gives to 'Paladin of the Order of the Wall' models. The Champion and Paladin Solos gain this benefit, but Durst does not because, although he is a Paladin, he does not also have 'of the Order of the Wall' in his title.
I had to check this one specifically with Pagani over the interaction of Vilmon and Durst when the Champion was in CID.

Is Durst actually Order of the Wall? Or is he from one of the other orders?

Is Durst actually Order of the Wall? Or is he from one of the other orders? Durst's descriptive text: "Fuelled by faith and his devotion to the code of the Order of the Wall, Anson Durst is all but undefeatable when committed to the defence of his people."

I suppose his priorities changed from defending walls to attacking walls when he became a warcaster. Also, Stryker should probably be a storm something too. Stormguard?
