Subject: Terrax-pattern Termite Assault Drill - Dedicated Transport, or Troops Slot?

Hi folks,
Quick question - the Assault drill - does this take up a Troops slot for detachment, or is it classed as a 'dedicated transport', and so does not take up a slot?
Follow on question - how can you tell if a transport is a 'dedicated transport' or not?
Many thanks!

You check to see if it has the 'Dedicated Transport' symbol on its datasheet.

It’s a Dedicated Transport, as evidenced by the icon on the Datasheet.

The symbol on the top left of the datasheet indicates what detachment slot it takes. Dedicated transports take up dedicated transports slots, not sure where you're getting the idea dedicated transports don't take up slots.

They don’t take up Troops slots, which seemed to be the OP’s question. They don’t have slots per se, just the “no more than one Transport per other non-Transport unit in your Detachment” stipulation.
