Heimdall Skullcrusher Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 I think I know the answer to this but wanted to ask anyways. Is it possible to take transports (rhinos, razorbacks, droppods) not as dedicated transports? Or do they always have to be bought with a unit? I'm thinking you aren't allowed to as there is no FOC slot for them. The Land Raider you can take obviously as it is a heavy support choice. I was just thinking in some cases it might work out to get that odd drop pod or to have an extra razorback or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wheelballer Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 I'd say that no, you cannot take transports without them being dedicated. But you can take them as dedicated and not use them for that unit. The only stipulation of dedicated transports is that only the unit they're dedicated to can start inside them. But you don't HAVE to start the unit inside. And for drop pods you can take them for your units and just drop them empty for extra guns on the table.

Jakobus Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 It depends on which Codex, but for the most part they can only be bought as an upgrade to a unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurglez Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 agreeing with these guys, almost all (if not all) dedicated transports can only be bought for units (generally under the unit description), there is no little box that tells you you can buy them on their own as an elite or troops or what ever, therefore you cannot.

RapatoR Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Sorry for stealing a topic but I have simmilar question: Can unit start game in a transport bought as part of FOC? Eg. can possesed start game in LR? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kapitalist-Pig Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 If you are asking, if I buy a land raider as a Heavy Support option, can I put a unit inside it at the begining of the game, I do not think there is a restriction on that. Or in other words: Yes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kapitalist-Pig Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Yes, if the land raider is bought as a Heavy Support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty the Pyro Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Sorry for stealing a topic but I have simmilar question: Can unit start game in a transport bought as part of FOC? Eg. can possesed start game in LR? Though it is never actualy mentioned in the rules anywhere the general concensous is yes. I am told that there is an example where that happens in the BRB, however as I only have the Black Reach rule book I can not quote you the pages.
