AkiraCho Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 no its another reason they arnt as popular as loyalist dreads, and less dependable.

King Tiger Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 although I think the dreadclaw from FW is allowed to transport a dreadnought (can find my book right now), so its kinda like DS'ing a dread Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/157214-deepstrike-chaos-dreadnought/#findComment-1838794 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AkiraCho Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 dreadclaws are just drop pods, but yeah chaos doesnt have rules for those as we arnt allowed them, but chaos has other stuff like defilers possessed and demons and such so puck up =) youll have a good day!

ThatWhichIsWhole Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Can't dread claws fly too? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/157214-deepstrike-chaos-dreadnought/#findComment-1839544 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kadaeux Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Can't dread claws fly too? In only three ways. Surface to Orbit Orbit to Surface Ship-to-ship.

King Tiger Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 however surface to Orbit is not covered in the rules, so no DS'ing, killing stuff, taking off then DS'ing again ;), and of course ship to ship isn't covered in these 40k rules Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/157214-deepstrike-chaos-dreadnought/#findComment-1839655 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically they have the "Flyer" and "Orbital Lander" rules instead of current drop-pod rules. (As of C:SM) Though we did do a "house rules" version of Assault boats. We did a massive BFG game where the boarding actions were actually played. Each Assault boat squadron that made it counted as three full assault boats of their troop type (In our case, 3 Dreadclaws for a total of 20 Chaos Marines and 1 Dreadnought and 3 Shark Assault boats with 60 Guardsmen and Three Sentinels respectively.) The "defenders" would be five times the attacking version (100 CSM and 5 Dreads/300 Guardsmen and 15 Sentinels respectively) You would actually have to destroy a "critical target" to get the critical. Big Battle, took a total of a week to finish. (It was a 2'500 point BFG game) Over the course of the game something like 30'000+ points of standard 40k boarding actions.
