Question on owning books for this - if one of my units had points updated in Chapter Approved am I required to have CA with me? Just for the point adjustment?
no you won't have to have it with you for that, but I'll be using chapter approved points to validate your lists... so to have a legal list you must take chapter approved into consideration.

Also what is the story on kitbashing/proxying for this tournament. For example one of my cypteks is converted from an Overlord and I traditionaly run the finecast cryptek as Orikan. Would that be allowed? yes, that's fine... just be clear with your opponent as to what things are. If you point at the model and you go "this is Orikan" they'll likely just go "oh okay"... not "that isn't the official Orikan model!"
if they say that, well congrats on them for being able to pick Orikan's model out of a crowd (I'd have to look it up online to do so and I play necrons!) but it still won't matter, as you're definitely allowed to use the finecast cryptek as Orikan

Coolio. I'm thinking I might still use the Fellblade despite the massive points increase, because I like the idea of having something cool looking on the table.
Didn't want to have to spend $50 to display said massive point increase though!

Good to know. I've signed up at the store and will email you my list when I'm done hammering the kinks out. Of course if the Codex drops before the tournament I'll probably need to redo half of it.

If you have the book it was originally in, it's safe to say that's fine, you just have to use the most recent rules/points costs. Consider Chapter Approved Errata that costs $39.99.

Quick question - for armies that have a strategem where you can pay CP "before the battle" to gain access to an extra Relic for a character, does this have to happen at the army list stage or can you make the choice upon seeing the matchup and table?
For example a World Eaters player spends his "free" Relic on Axe of Blind Fury and puts it on his army list. On his second game he comes up against a Psyker heavy army and decides that the Brass Collar would be pretty useful as psychic defense. Can he spend 1CP before set up on game two to use the Gifts of Chaos Strategem and get the Brass Collar for one game only, or would he have had to spend 1CP on his army list and have the Collar for the whole event?

All the codex armies have that option. This allows you to utilize the command point before the battle, but you choose or choose not to spend your CP each match.
So you can definitely decide when you see your match up if you choose to use up your CP's for extra relics.
You don't need to spend it at list construction.
I'll have to include this in the player pack. (which honestly is going to be soon(ish) I kinda almost promise and stuff)
