Hey Dakka,

So I just found out that berzerkers can't assult our of a rhino which totally ruins my whole strategy.
Any ways from my understanding I can assult only if during my turn the rhino has not moved. So what I was thinking was if I can move my rhino pop smoke rather than shoot which it will give me a little more survivability till the next turn, I can than disembark shoot with my zerkers and than assult. Also I have a question about a unit of 9 marines and a champion. Is it possible that I can split this unit up into 2 groups of 5 if I wanted too?

So the list I have at the moment I'm sticking with but due to this heart breaking rule I'm most likely going to fork off in a different direction in the near future. I'm really hoping that they change this rule once the new codex drops as I can keep my original plan. There is a new CSM codex on the way right?

You can never assault out of a rhino even if it hasn't moved. What's even worse is that you cant assault even if the rhino was wrecked during your opponents last turn.

Your only options are:
Landraider
A whole bunch of forge world stuff (drop claws, limoraider etc)

Or finding a way to survive the turn that you disembark (e.g. Bel'kor granting invisibility.

All those options are quite expensive which is why the best CC choices in the chaos codex are spawn and bikers with jugger/bike lords (which don't rely on transports to make it into combat).

Also you cannot split up squads of CSM but since the minimum unit size is 5, you can just buy 2 squads (150 points) but at that point you also have 2 champions.

I bought a bloodcrusher body for $10 on eBay, and used CSM bits to make a lord riding it. My Juggerlord cost less than $20- I just had to build it myself. Fun to build and a unique unit.
