Gumo9 Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Hi guys I feel really stupid asking this but I've not had many games of 6th yet and none of those games had transports in use. Do I read BRB page 79 correctly when it says that a unit can only disembark if the vehicle has moved a mere 6"? What about an open topped fast skimmer like a landspeeder storm, or a stormraven? Surely these fast vehicles dedicated to high speed troop delivery cannot be limited to the same speed as an ork truk that has been enginered to run like a clown car? Seems silly to me. Please can someone clarify how far fast vehicles can move and still disembark troops. Page numbers would be much appreciated. Thanks folks G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dswanick Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Nope, Pg.79 covers it - 0-6" to disembark, not over 6". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morollan Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Sadly that is indeed correct. You can move no more than 6" if you wish to disembark models from a transport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Res Ipsa Loquitur Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 It's worth noting that Stormravens, at least Blood Angels Stormravens, have a special rule to cover disembarking when it has moved over 6". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gumo9 Posted November 2, 2012 Author Share Posted November 2, 2012 Thanks for the fast replies everyone. Unfortunately it's as I thought then. G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Res Ipsa Loquitur Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Just one more reason why transports suck in 6th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hymirl Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Just one more reason why transports suck in 6th. Not really, the flat out move means that over two turns you travel the same total distance before disembarking. and at least when you do disembark you have a much larger radius to do it in... You've actually moved future in total not less... And you don't stand about waiting for templates to hit you either... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
