So my question is can an artillery tractor tow a stationary artillery platform? I’m not sure if one ability trumps the other or not.

What is an "artillery tractor"?

Do you mean the Centaur Light Carrier?

What is a "stationary artillery platform"?

I can not find stationary artillery platform in the DKOK rules.

I found a Death Korps of Krieg Heavy Mortar Battery that has a 0" movement, but nothing says it is "stationary" or "Immobile" so the Centaur Light Carrier can move it as normal. It just can not move on its own.

Next time you ask use the real units names, and quote the relevant rules. Everything DeathReaper said about the centaur light carrier is correct.

From Index: Forces of the Astra Militarum:

The Manticore Battery does not have the 'Immobile' rule so there is no reason why you can't tow it.

I see the argument with the Hydra Battery and Earthshaker Battery though. They both have the 'Immobile' rule which says "This model cannot move for any reason...". This conflicts with the Centaur Light Carrier's 'Artillery Tractor' rule that allows it to move <REGIMENT> ARTILERY models. My ruling is that you have to follow both rules, so 'immobile' models cannot be moved.

Luckily the Centair Light Carrier is an utterly pointless unit that no one would ever dream of taking, so this situation will never come up
