Emperors Immortals Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Basically, can a contemptor use a dreadclaw? I had thought yes, but really need a ruling before i take them in. Also, contemptors and Storm RAvens - yay or nay? Thanks guys. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/246473-contemptors-and-dreadclaws/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPetersson Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 No. The Contemptor doesn't have transport options IIRC, and the dreadclaw doesn't specifically allow it.

Morollan Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Don't know about the Dreadclaw but I see no reason why a Contemptor could not use a Stormraven in an army that is allowed to use 'Ravens. The transport capacity includes "one dreadnought" and, as far as I know, the Contemptor is a dreadnought.

Something Wycked Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 All Contemptors are Dreadnoughts; not all Dreadnoughts are Contemptors. Ergo, anything that allows/disallows Dreadnoughts will allow/disallow Contemptors.

You lost me on this one. :P I think to clearify that you are saying a Contemptor dread is classified as a "dreadnought", but not all dreadnoughts would be considered a "Contemptor". is this correct. But since a SR would be able to transport a dread that a contemptor would be able to transport with the SR. I hope so because I'm buying one just for that reason.

Exactly. :cry: There are Dreadnoughts, and then there are Contemptor Dreadnoughts. Both kinds are Dreadnoughts.

I don't have the rules for a Storm Raven here so I don't know what they say though...

It is allowed. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/246473-contemptors-and-dreadclaws/#findComment-2983672 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have the rules for a Storm Raven here so I don't know what they say though... Its odd, but here we go: The Stormraven can carry two separate squads: one unit of up to 12 models in its cabin, plus a single Dreadnought in its rear grapples.... There are four different types of Dreadnaught in C:BA. Unless someone is willing to argue that venerable dreads, death company dreads and Furiosos are somehow also not dreadnaughts I think the case is fairly cut and dry. Heck, Bjorn Fellhanded is a dreadnaught- and he doesnt even have dreadnaught in his name. *shrugs* Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/246473-contemptors-and-dreadclaws/#findComment-2983937 Share on other sites More sharing options...
