JEFF4i Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Honestly, I'd say use LRs mostly for Termies. Well-outfitted Termies in a LR or LRC are a nasty nasty punch.

Grey Mage Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 In the sw codex it says that blood claws can only have a rhino. Does that mean that blood claws can only ride in a rhino or that blood claws can only have a rhino as a dedicated transport? Blood Claws can only choose a Rhino as a dedicated transport, but after the game starts they can commandeer any transport that they can fit into. As a dedicated transport, RAW you cant use bloodclaw rhinos for any other units either.... they probly leave to much of a mess. Acutally, RAW on page 67 quite clearly states that any unit can use another units dedicated transport as long as the models will fit. But the unit can not begin the game in another units dedicated transport. Yes, however codex overrides rulebook when theres a conflict yes? Thus, under the bloodclaw entry we have a rule that states "note that the only unit that may may embark on a transport vehicle is the unit it was bought as an upgrade for, plus any characters that have joined that unit." This is very specificly in the blood claw rules on the bottom of the page. Just be happy it doesnt affect our grey hunters and long fangs aswell.

ChainsawDR Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 so just to clarify please... Can I have 16 bloodclaws in a Land Raider right from the start? Can I start with 16 bloodclaws on foot, then on turn one embark them onto an empty Land Raider? Thanks, and sorry if I haven't read the above properly.

The important bit here is 'the only unit that may may embark on a transport vehicle is the unit it was bought as an upgrade for' If I buy a Land Raider as a heavy choice it's not an upgrade for any unit and can be commandeered by the Wolf Guard Pack Leader keeping a tight leash in the young 'uns... Having siad that, I, and many others I think, haven't really noticed that little clause in the BC description :-/ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/159427-land-raider/page/2/#findComment-1876910 Share on other sites More sharing options...

No you cant have 15 bloodclaws start out in a landraider (Crusader) Yes you can start with 15 bloodclaws on foot and put them in a empty Landraider (Crusader) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/159427-land-raider/page/2/#findComment-1876952 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having siad that, I, and many others I think, haven't really noticed that little clause in the BC description :-/ What I was saying was that the bloodclaws rhino couldnt be used by other units, not that a bloodclaw unit *with our without a rhino* couldnt use other transports. Of course they can ride around in the landraider on this fieldtrip. You can have 16 in a landraider crusader *WGPL or IC?* during deployment. Since its no longer taken as a transport for anything in our army anyone can use it at any time.
