Greetings,

I'm sure this is probably a dumb question, but I can't seem to find an answer to it. Can you take a transport (in this case a Taurox Prime) without transporting any troops? I am fooling around with an all-vehicle guard army and I'll admit that 90pts for a little buggy to do actions for me and zip around sounds very fun and thematic.

Follow up question: if you DO have a unit of scions and a taurox prime... do the scions NEED to go in the transport or can the transport be deployed empty?

Again, I'm sure these are very beginner questions but I know that past editions have had some very specific rules with this sort of thing.

Thanks in advance!

there are transports and dedicated transports.
dedicated transports have to start the game with something inside of them while regular transports dont.

both versions of the taurox are dedicated so yes, you will have to have troops inside of them.

Thanks for the reply and clearing that up!

Technically you CAN take a dedicated transport without any passengers.

But, as per the rules, it'll be removed from play & counted as destroyed if you deploy it with no passengers riding in it.
