BA vehicles

[BaldrickRSA]

Hello,

 

I see the Baal Pred has OverCharged Engines, giving that extra D6 movement. I see no mention of rhinos and razorbacks. Do these also have overcharged engines? If so, where does it state this? I cannot seem to find this if it exists?

Just Baal preds until we get our codex unfortunately

Baal pred only, nothing for anything other BA vehicle. This may or may not come back in our proper codex.

 

Overcharged on the Baal is kinda poop anyway IMO, as it's just a somewhat more reliable advance. Advancing the Baal means you can only fire the flamestorm cannon in the shooting phase - it's the only Assault weapon option.

Agreed.  The real reason to take a Baal is that sweet sweet AC spam.

Why when razorbacks are 40 points cheaper?

I did just because WYSIWYG. Worked well against ad mech with a captain, lieutenant, and 2 other asscan razors.

You need to factor in the squad cost to buy a transport, you cannot buy them on their own anymore. Still', it's pretty insignificant.

I quite like the Baal Turret, so might pick some up to make Razors - just leave off the sponsons.

Plus, at least on first reading of the rules, any unit choice allows you to take a Transport. Terminators? Have a Rhino. Dreadnought? You get one too. Can't fit in? Who cares? Bikers? Heres a Razorback for when you're tired of steering yourself.

Not sure if that's how it's intended, or whether it'll be FAQ'd into only counting if the "parent" unit can fit, but that seems to be how it works for now.
