dbrinson Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Just a thought since grey knight can take psycannon 2 per and are considerably a nice unit despise there high cost. but the problem is no transports. Is it feasable to take them in 1500+ pts games because of the new dedicated transport rules allows them to get in the rhino and things of other squads. I dunno a rhino cruising around with 6 str 6 shots sounds like it might be worth looking into?

So you can't take an allied transport and load them in it. The only way the PAGK ride is if you take LR for them.

number6 Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Actually, SM Rhinos are not "truly dedicated" like those in the DH codex, so as a Marines player, you can give an allied GK unit a ride in your Rhinos per the rules for dedicated transports in the BRB.

Grand Master Tyrak Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Prathios Posted Today, 03:43 PM No due to the wording in the DH codex the GK cannot get in a transport that was not dedicated to them. So you can't take an allied transport and load them in it. The only way the PAGK ride is if you take LR for them. I'm not sure that's the case. It's the transports that are dedicated (or not), not the units. So DH transports would be dedicated, but SM/IG ones would not. EDIT: Beaten to it.

Prathios Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Oh then my mistake. I assumed do to the wording on transport options in our book that it basically banned us from getting in vehicles due to some mystic force field. If they can take a ride in a SM rhino then that's not too bad. Doesn't help my BT army though :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/165314-grey-knight-allied-w-codex-marines/#findComment-1945523 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melissia Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Same for theSisters as well. Their transports are not dedicated due the reference to dedicated transports being removed in a later edition, as noted in the FAQ.

jeffersonian000 Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Not to throw a wrench into this, but doesn't it state in the rule book that Terminators cannot be transported in Rhinos or Razorbacks due to their size, while Land Raiders specifically can tranpost Terminators?

jeffersonian000 Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 True. Sorry, I mis-read. I'm planning on fielding my GK's and SoB's as allies to my out of date Legion of the Damned army (played as vanilla Marines). I'm liking that Marines can add a Multi-Melta to their Land Raiders, and that I can put my PAGK's and GKT's into them.
