AnarchX Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I read the FAQ posted here and it says: Q20.) Can Wolf Guard Terminators Deep strike? A.) Terminators can DEEP STRIKE via drop pods. It has nothing to do with teleporting (thereby circumventing the 'Will not Teleport' rule). Simply purchase a drop pod for the squad as detailed in 4th edition Codex: Space Marines, and your Wolf Guard Terminators can drop right onto your enemies heads. However, on p8 on C:SW under the Wolf Guard bodyguard entry under Transport Vehicles it says "Wolf Guard in terminator armour may only ride in a Land Raider." I have always used drop pods for my WGBL and his retinue if Terminators. Is this a rules violation?

dietrich Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 It's because the SW codex is a relic of Third Edition, back before there was a droppod model. Use the rules for Drop Pods from Codex Space Marines. Units that may purchase a drop pod transport stay the same from Codex Space Wolves. In third edition, you didn't place a model on the board for the pod. Units just arrived on the board via deep strike, but you could only use certain units. You didn't buy a drop pod as a transport. With the fourth edition SM codex, that changed, an it was now a model and a dedicated transport that you purchased. Yes, Wolfguard can take a drop pod transport.

AnarchX Posted January 15, 2009 Author Share Posted January 15, 2009 Thanks for clearing that up for me. I thought it was insanely stupid for them to not be able to take a Drop Pod. I played 2nd edition and didn't start playing again until 4th, so I missed 3rd edition completely. :P Thanks, AnarchX Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/157662-wolf-guard-bodyguard-drop-pod/#findComment-1844824 Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnarchX Posted January 18, 2009 Author Share Posted January 18, 2009 You should just make a sticky with a title like "Information on new Space Wolf Codex!!!" and teh content should be "Yeah, its coming... someday... don't post and ask when!" Just MHO. :D Thanks, AnarchX Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/157662-wolf-guard-bodyguard-drop-pod/#findComment-1848135 Share on other sites More sharing options...

muzzyman1981 Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 Well the trick would be to get people to look at it first instead of posting then looking around. After all we do have a post under the Important stuff section that says to read first but apparently they aren't =P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/157662-wolf-guard-bodyguard-drop-pod/#findComment-1848181 Share on other sites More sharing options...
