Crablezworth Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Whipped up some home made rules for knight drop pods for legions imperialis. Point cost is a shot in the dark, they're based off the dreadnought drop pods which are 7pts a model. Like the dreadnought pods, these aren't assault transports so no charge order out of them. I also included the ability to purchase palisade shield pods for each knight pod. tinpact, Cactus, Noserenda and 4 others 6 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/382486-knight-drop-pod-rules/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interrogator Stobz Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Looks good TBH. I'd play with and against that. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/382486-knight-drop-pod-rules/#findComment-6026978 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cactus Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Nice idea. You say they "may transport knights" but did you mean to write "only knights"? You haven't explained the X either, which I assume is the number of knights it can carry. Apologies if that's covered in the core rules, I haven't bothered to read my copy of the rulebook.

It's all there under knight transport (x), its not common to have special rules in a unit listing itself but because its a new one I had to make up it's all there.

Black Cohort Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 The rules seem cool, but I wonder if it is a balance issue to give knights drop pods? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/382486-knight-drop-pod-rules/#findComment-6027086 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interrogator Stobz Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 (edited) I haven't found Knights to be that good in LI, I don't think this would hurt. My Acastus got wrecked by similar points in Baneblades yesterday for example.

The cost of just a stock questoris is 180pts. One can field 6 leviathan dreadnoughts in 6 drop pods for 180pts. I feel its more knights that are over costed.

Of course it is! I think this might be when I finally concede that I should be using reading glasses!
