Ishagu Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Looking at the Legion book, it says that as a restriction the number of units that have the "Legiones Astartes" special rule must exceed those that don't. My question is, does that include dedicated transports or not? Do they actually count as being part of the unit or would taking a fully mechanised list with additional HS vehicles be prohibited because they don't?

To me it wouldn't because the dedicated transport is purchased as part of the unit and is not a separate Army List entry in-and-of itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlo Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Hmmm.... I think with things like this, you have to assume they do count unless it states otherwise. Like the BA rule Host of Angels, this is the same deal, but specifically calls out that Dedicated transports don't count. So on this premise I'd say that all vehicles do. I'd imagine it's to keep the army limited to just the elite and thier rides with the Primarch, and not to just be "Pride +" which is sort of is now!

Terminus Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Agree with Charlo, given precedents, unless it says you can ignore dedicated transports, you cannot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlo Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Aye! But the thinking lines up I think - this is supposed to just be the Primarch and his top dudes going into the center of battle. Teleportation would have been nice :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishagu Posted October 4, 2016 Author Share Posted October 4, 2016 That's fine. It just pushes me into 2.5k games as the standard. My army is actually better that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
