Jackalwolf Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 (edited) Gas anyone had the chance of glancing at it? If so, would you be as kind as to list it's transport options? Might have to sell mine if disappointed :p Edited June 18, 2017 by Grieux Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/334916-what-to-do-with-my-mastodon/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Withershadow Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 (edited) 40. Can carry jump pack units, terminators, and dreadnoughts, with the usual space capacity. Plus tough and potent. It's way better in 8th than it was in 7th.

Brother_Angelus Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 It's around 900pts with weapons. No justification or explanation of why primaris is disallowed.

Can anyone suggest what to do with it then? I'm building a primaris only red scorpions army and a 30/40k space wolves force, I was really excited about making it the main vehicle for my scorpions but that option is out of the table now. Could it fit a viable role in a 40k space wolves force or should I just sell it on and buy something else?

OutlawSixActual Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 Ask your regular gaming buddies if they care if you transport primaris in it, and then go from there :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/334916-what-to-do-with-my-mastodon/#findComment-4787805 Share on other sites More sharing options...
NatBrannigan Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 I'm surprised that regular Marine tanks can't transport Primaris, makes it harder for people to intergrate them into their army so lowering potential sales I would say... Unless they're hoping people start a new army of Primaris for this reason? Hmmm I do like that the Confusingly names Primaris Rhino can't carry Primaris Marines!

Helycon Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 The Mastodon will be incredibly hard to fit in a loyalist army due to the relic rule. You need two other Lords of War that aren't relics, and those are both rare and expensive units. The rules for the Mastodon are otherwise pretty much OK. I'm not incredibly impressed to be fair when you consider the points cost and what it brings to the table. I feel you could be more cost effective with Land Raiders. It's a shame, it's a fantastic model, but I feel they messed up the rules for Lord of War relics and the Mastodon's actual cost too.
