Ork Boy Hangin' off a Trukk





Really sorry for this newbie question , It's been forever since I've played this game and I've essentially forgotten most of the rules.

I see that some units come with a dedicated transport, for example I can put meganobs in a battlewagon as a dedicated transport, or I can put boyz in a trukk. But I see people putting their burnas in a wagon, even though the ork codex doesn't list a dedicated transport. Do you just start out with a wagon next to the burnas and have them embark the first turn?

Sorry for the newb question, thanks for all the help!

Dedicated transports take up no extra slot on the FOC, whereas there are a number of vehicles out there that have transport capacity but must be taken as a HS choice, or FA, etc. In the case of Orks the Looted Wagon is a HS choice, but since it has a transport capacity you can have a unit of burnas, or any other squad that will fit, inside it. They may even start the game inside of it.

Yes - dedicated tranports can only have the unit that bought it deploy in them at the start, however any other unit can then embark in it turn 1

And non-dedicated transports (that is, vehicles which have a transport capacity but are bought as their own force org slot) may have any unit deployed in it which could normally embark.
