wizard12 Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 in the rule book it says that dedicated transports can only transport the unit it was bought for as well as any indavidual charaters who join the unit. but on the forum people say things about giving the dedicated transport to other units.eg. blood angels assult marines without their jump packs get a free rhino/drop pod, give this to [insert unit name here] thus giving you a free rhino/drop pod help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cedric Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 5ed "Dedicated Transports" mean that only the unit with the transport may be deployed inside it. As the game progresses, other units may use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Narthecium Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Yeah. With a drop pod it's got to go to whoever it was dedicated for, or you can drop it empty (not sure why you'd want to do that though really). But with a rhino/razor/landraider the only stipulation is that upon deployment it can only have the unit it was dedicated for inside of it. Nothing stops it from being empty when you deploy it and having another squad hop into it first turn and go about their business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The extra drop pod (even Empty) gives you flexibility in the drop pod assult so you can have more of the actual people you wnat droped to get droped, or if you want less people droped you can drop the empty one and keep more folk in reserves. Other than that it still has a stormbolter and still can block LOS/provide cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
