Does anybody know yet how kill points will work for units with dedicated transports?

1KP - unit and transport both destroyed?

1KP - unit only destroyed?

1KP- for unit and 1KP for transport?

If anyone knows please point me to confirmation.

Dedicated transports are a unit.

Units give up a Kill Point when destroyed.

That's the confirmation.


You'd have to have a rule which said dedicated transports don't give up a Kill Point in order for it to be otherwise.

On the same question, do selections that do not count as taking up a slot give away kill points as well?

IE Emperor's Champion?
IG/Witch Hunter Priests? (if so, thats 3 KP per hq unit it seems)
Chaos Marine Lesser Demons?

Do DH/WH inquisitors with retinues give away 2 kill points?

Emperor's Champion - yes as he is a unit.
Priests - No as they are not a unit and are not independent characters.
Lesser Demons - yes as they are a unit.


If the thing is a unit (it moves, shoots, etc as a independent unit in the game) it gives up a Kill Point.

Independent characters that are permanently joined to a unit (retinues) still give up a Kill Point, and this is the only exception given to the rule.

Thanks Yak.
