In the Imperial Armour: Apocalypse 2008 book, on page 52 "Ork army list rules index" under dedicated transports it has:

Trukk - OC (Ork Codex)
Option for BIG MEK, Nobz, Meganobz, Boyz.

But when I look in the Codex Big Meks don't have any dedicated transports.

So am I missing something or is the IA book wrong? I don't suppose it matters in Apoc games but in normal games I'd love to stick some burnas in that trukk.

The IA book is probably wrong, given that it's nickname is Apocalyptic Mistakes.

Find the IA:A FAQ when the downloads section is back up - its about 20 pages.

It's wrong.

It's also Apoc. GO NUTS!

I was hoping I had found a way to give a burna mob a trukk for use with an all bike KOS army under normal game rules. I was hoping there was some errata out there somewhere that I had missed that said "oops we were meant to give Meks the chance of taking a Trukk" it was a long shot, but worth asking.

Looks like I'm still stuck having to decided whether to take a BW for them or a making a mob of boyz run.

Damn why couldn't they have included the Trukk in the Fast attack section.

You still couldnt put a burna mob in the trukk, as the Big Mek is the unit that bought the trukk (if it were allowed...hypothetical!) NOT the burna boyz + big mek. It is clear from the IC rules that an IC joins the unit, not the other way around.

Yeah but once bought any unit can use a dedicated transport can't they? Just make the guys that bought it walk.

Buy trukk for a unit of boyz

heavy support Battle wagon

put burnas in the trukk.

Big Meks had the option to take a trukk in the last Ork codex, which was current when the IA book was published...
