Bounding Assault Marine

Now every techmarine (and master of forge) in the army allows you to take one unit of servitors. Thunderfire Cannon has a techmarine operating it. Does the techmarine operating the Cannon allow you to take unit of servitors?
I know theres an old thread about the matter, but it didnt give me the answer. Or i just missed it..

I would say yes off hand, but I'd have to check the wording before giving a 100% answer.

I would say no. The option is given under the techmarine entry, and iirc it refers to techmarine units. Also, iirc, techmarine w/ thunderfire are classed as techmarine gunner, not techmarine. Please do check the wording, though, Gwar or someone else.

Page 138: "You may include one unit of Servitors for every Techmarine or Master of the Forge in your army."
Page 142: Under the Profile he is listed as a "Techmarine", the same as the IC Techmarine on Page 138
As such, I am gonna say yes, he does. However, he cannot join them until the Cannon Assplodes, (as he is already in a unit with the Cannon) So the Servitors will suffer from Mindlock.

Seems legal, but not hugely beneficial from a gameplay standpoint.

Anuvver fing - when they do sumfing, they try to make it look like somfink else to confuse everybody. When one of them wants to lord it over the uvvers, 'e says "I'm very speshul so'z you gotta worship me", or "I know summink wot you lot don't know, so yer better lissen good". Da funny fing is, arf of 'em believe it and da over arf don't, so 'e 'as to hit 'em all anyway or run fer it.

Nor can he join them afterwards since, unlike the solo Techmarine, he doesn't have the Independant Character rule.

I am afraid I must Correct you there good sir. In the unit Entry for the Thunderfire Cannon on Page 73 of Codex: Counts as Salamanders, you will find the following: Each Thunderfire Cannon is crewed by a single Techmarine (see page 71 for special rules). Note that the Techmarine does not benefit from the Independent Character and Blessing of the Omnissiah special rules unless his Thunderfire Cannon has been destroyed.
