Khornestar Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Hello fellow true believers. I'm currently fantasizing about buying a ton of renegade ogryns, and I'm wondering if I've thought of all the possible transport options when using this list: - Chimera - Valkyrie Unfortunately Arvus Lighters can't transport Ogryns (because of course), so I think these are literally our only two options since we don't have access to Stormlords or the huge transports. Am I missing anything? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/344565-ogryn-transport-options/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slan Drakkos Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 What about chaos rhinos and landraiders? I'm honestly asking since I don't play RaH.

Khornestar Posted February 19, 2018 Author Share Posted February 19, 2018 Those can only transport Heretic Astartes units, i.e. from the Chaos Space Marines codex.

Nemerax Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 No those are the two options we got. I use them as 4 man squads in chimera, because for me the Valkyrie is too expensive choice for transporting melee units and going out of a chimera is a 9" move basically, better than the 9"+ away drop in my opinion.

Soulhunter1995 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Might be completely wrong, but how about a renegade Stormlord? that'd be a nasty thing to face alone even before the Ogryns came out of it :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/344565-ogryn-transport-options/#findComment-5014999 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akrim Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 (edited) Chims and Valks are the only current option. That said Ogryn in a Valk are pretty good, in my experience anyway. Edit: disreagrd, saw it was Stormlord not Stormeagle mentioned.

Soulhunter1995 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Just literally checked it myself and realised that it wasn`t in the entry :( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/344565-ogryn-transport-options/#findComment-5015132 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goreshed Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 It is an option if you use the AM codex...just saying Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/344565-ogryn-transport-options/#findComment-5015430 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khornestar Posted February 20, 2018 Author Share Posted February 20, 2018 (edited) It is an option if you use the AM codex...just saying For sure, and I have a semi-built Baneblade chassis for exactly that purpose. I'll probably run them more often as loyalist guard than otherwise. Buuuut I also want to run Renegades along my Word Bearers and such, so I need the inferior army list options too.

Soulhunter1995 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Same here :) and our vehicles are slightly cheaper i think? (Don`t have the book to hand so I`m unable to confirm this) :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/344565-ogryn-transport-options/#findComment-5016340 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khornestar Posted February 21, 2018 Author Share Posted February 21, 2018 (edited) Nope, the common army list entries are identical. They use the same datasheets/points in the FW Index's Astra Militarum section or Codex: Astra Militarum.

Goreshed Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 It's depressing at times when you want to run a traitor guard army and cant even work it besides a chaos one to use halfway decent rules (pfft who am I kidding, running a spearhead of guard tanks it awesome!). But if running solo the AG codex works great. Hell it's what we've done for years before the FW book came out and I'm loosing more hope with FW coming out with a halfway decent guard dex than I am with GW coming up with their own.

Khornestar Posted February 23, 2018 Author Share Posted February 23, 2018 Yeah, for sure. Truthfully, I play so seldom that I really enjoy the hobbying more than the game itself. I cashed in some cashback rewards on a credit card and bought 12 Renegade Ogryns today. :) Goreshed 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/344565-ogryn-transport-options/#findComment-5017367 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soulhunter1995 Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 @Juggernut Now that is a very good way to spend some cashback rewards Looking forward to seeing them in the future :) Khornestar 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/344565-ogryn-transport-options/#findComment-5017576 Share on other sites More sharing options...
