captain_shrike Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 This is more of an observation of the new rules rather than a question, but I'm hoping someone will prove me wrong. There I was, contemplating how I was going to model MotF on a bike, and then it hit me. A Rhino costs the same as a bike. Having not read from front to back the new rulebook I assumed I could give him one, just like the Techmarines in 4th ed. But once I looked at the MotF entry, my heart sunk. No dedicated transport. Someone please prove me wrong and show that he can have a Rhino! Please? :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/156844-no-dedicated-transports-for-techmarines/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldenhaller Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Not of his own I'm afraid. Options are - with an understrength regular squad who've purchased one or a command squad if you have a captain. ~O Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/156844-no-dedicated-transports-for-techmarines/#findComment-1834356 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kairos Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Or you could purchase one for any unit that CAN have one, then just have the MotF ride in it.

Oldenhaller Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 but only if you wanted him to start the game out of it. ~O Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/156844-no-dedicated-transports-for-techmarines/#findComment-1834434 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luku Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Not if he's noted as joining the squad from the start... Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/156844-no-dedicated-transports-for-techmarines/#findComment-1834436 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother_Zach Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 I'm not too sure if he can or cannot have a dedicated trasport, my my brother and I were having a discussion about mounting a Techmarine (or master of the forge) on a bike. My suggestion is to convert a normal biker into a master of the forge. One Idea I had was having a cart on the back of his bike, mabe something simmilar to the thunderfire cannon.

nighthawks Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 and that cart would count as? the thunderfire cannon gunner crew techmarine does not have the option of being mounted on a bike. though it would be cool to see a limbered artilery piece in 40k, I don't know if it would actually help anyone...
