zedsdead Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 I took a quick glance at the codex and i notice that terminators have now lost the ability to take Drop Pods ?!?! This is a huge dissapointment since ive been using them in my pod lists for years.

nurglespuss Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Yeah, I was gutted too. Would have been better (IMHO) if the codex had listed all the units that 'could' take drop pods, and you then just pay for the number of drop pods you want.

Mordekiem Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 They probably decided that since they can deep strike they wouldn't want or need drop pods.

Storm Dragons 3rd Company Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 This is a dumb question, so I apologize. The Drop Pod can take 12 infantry models, 1 dread, or 1 T-cannons. Terminators are infantry, albeit their description says that they take the place of two models. Terminators: Infantry? Check. Prohibited? Nothing in the drop pod entry says Terminators CAN'T ride in one. Number? 6 (12/2 just like a Land Raider) What am I missing?

Hexx Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 1) Drop pods are a dedicated transport 2) Terminators don't have them listed as a dedicated transport option. Therefore- Terminator squads can't use drop pods. (IC's in Terminator armour would be able to join a squad that can take a drop pod though) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/147475-drop-pods-for-termies-gone/#findComment-1720879 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Styphus Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 What am I missing? The part in the unit entry where Drop Pods aren't mentioned in the transport options.

Dourine Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 You could have 5 terminators run up to a dropped pod and enter it, just to feel special.

Mordekiem Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 You could have 5 terminators run up to a dropped pod and enter it, just to feel special. Bzzzzzzzzt! Oohh, Thanks for playing! Here is a lovely parting gift, though... :D Seriously, read the codex before tossing up random thoughts. Pg 69 is pretty clear. :RTBBB: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/147475-drop-pods-for-termies-gone/#findComment-1723003 Share on other sites More sharing options...
