Indefragable Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 No Dedicated Transport option is listed for the BA Contemptor Incaendius. Can you purchase a Anvillus Dreadclaw, Kharybdis Assault Claw, or Lucius Dread Pod to put one in?

ShadowCore67 Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 RAW the Anvillus can't because it's transport capacity has a specific list of dreadnoughts it can transport. RAW the kharybdis can, as it's transport capacity simply says one dreadnought.

The Scorpion Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Isn't this the same issue as with the Mhara Gal tainted Dreadnought?

The Ironic Warrior Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Nope the Incandeus cannot get in any drop pods - the FAQ on the drop pods has refined the list of things that can get in and they are very specific (differentiating between contemptors and contemptor cortus dreadnoughts). It's OK though, you've got a jump pack so you don't even need one...

All contemptor chassis' have Fleet though, which gives you some re-rolls for run and charge moves.

Spagunk Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Unless you're saving the pack for assaulting... All contemptor chassis' have Fleet though, which gives you some re-rolls for run and charge moves. True, however... "If activated during the Assault phase, the booster pack allows the Dreadnought to roll 3D6 to determine its charge range, ignoring all other models and terrain freely." AND can use fleet with that. So up to 18" charge moves, re-rolling a die with fleet. That's a massive bonus in the charge phase.

Indefragable Posted October 15, 2020 Author Share Posted October 15, 2020 Thanks for the replies, all. My thoughts were as @Spagunk mentioned, trying to have my cake and eat it to...getting him on the board fast and reliably yet also having some explosive mobility. Oh well.

Varyn Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 As others have said, I think the intention is that you cannot take a drop pod for the unit as you can choose to 'gain' deepstrike.
