Kydoimos Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Hi everyone, While thinking about developing a SA allied force for my future Imperial Heralds, I read something that seemed odd to me. I'd like to play an Enginseer Auxilia but while reading this unit's rules, I had the impression that it couldn't use any assigned transport, read a Dracosan. So, does this mean it have to footslog all along the game ? I hope I'm wrong... I was also thinking about the Stormlord option, but that's far more expensive, points-wise. And, well... I certainly don't wsh to be considered as the WAAC guy. Thanks!

Hesh Kadesh Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Veletaris Storm Section taken as part of a Household Retinue can take a Dracosan Armoured Transport (and the flying potato thing) as a DT thanks to the rule under Legate Commander. Veletaris Storm Section taken as part of an Infantry Tercio can take 1-3 per Tercio. Note that you can take 1-3 per Tercio, even if there's only 1 squad in the Tercio. ((Page 264) Auxilia Enginseers may not take Dedicated Transports, unfortunately, but they may ride in empty DT's. Although they cannot deploy within said DT, they can set up behind and then enter. (giggling). Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/303541-question-about-solar-auxilia-transport/#findComment-3952423 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kydoimos Posted February 16, 2015 Author Share Posted February 16, 2015 Thanks again! So I understand what you said : I can take a Veletaris section as the only infantry section of a Tercio and deploy it within a Dracosan. Since I can also take 2 Dracosan as DT even if I only have one section in my Tercio, my Enginseer can deploy within the second one after the 1st turn begins. Well, let's ride then!

Hesh Kadesh Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Indeed. Not sure if it is intentional for that way and woulf survive an FAQ, however. I must remember to email FW about that. I believe due to the difference in wording however between DT and Special Fortifications that it is intentional, though.
