You could also combine this with a Lash Prince or Sorcerer for possible turn 1 assault shenanigans. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2209587.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2209587.page GMT 30 Chosen CSM http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2209601.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2209601.page GMT 30 Chosen CSM

seems like it might work. special weapons are good and the csm book has pretty limited mobility options so anything to get them closer to the enemy...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2214250.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2214250.page GMT 30 Chosen CSM http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2215441.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2215441.page GMT 30 Chosen CSM I'd take outflanking or infiltrating 3x 5 Chosen in Rhinos with maxed-out special weapons.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2215523.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2215523.page GMT 30 Chosen CSM http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2215539.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2215539.page GMT 30 Chosen CSM cc in order to fully use the points you dropped into all of those special weapons.
I like to infiltrate them near an objective and burn out whatever enemies are in cover. Flamers might not seem like a good choice, but five of them ignoring cover dropping pie plates = a crapton of hits. Give them an icon and teleport my termies in to help in cc, or I'll drive a Zerker squad over in a rhino.
I'd say for the chance to run 5 plasma/melta/flamer in a squad of 10, that also infiltrates, and has an icon, it's worth the points.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2215576.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2215576.page GMT 30 Chosen CSM CSM army, with CSM in Rhinos and Havocs in Rhinos.
If you go first and let the Chosen/Rhinos infiltrate, they can take on some serious threats while your other units are approaching.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2215578.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2215578.page GMT 30 Chosen CSM

You cannot infiltrate the rhino.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2215876.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2215876.page GMT Re:30 Chosen CSM IIRC you can

Why is that? I thought a dedicated transport benefited from a unit's special rule. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2223957.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2223957.page GMT 30 Chosen CSM

Outlfank specifically says you can outflank with the dedicatded transport infiltrate does not.

But IIRC you could delpoy the rhino normally and still infiltrate with the guys. Unless something in infiltrate says you lose it with a transport but I don't think it does.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2224460.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2224460.page GMT 30 Chosen CSM

Automatically Appended Next Post:
or maybe it gets scout, which would confer outflank or a 12" move. I really dont remember exactly. but Im positive you cannot infiltrate a unit in a rhino.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2224464.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2224464.page GMT 30 Chosen CSM http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2225573.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2225573.page GMT 30 Chosen CSM http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2227017.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2227017.page GMT 30 Chosen CSM http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2227081.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/332601/2227081.page GMT
