However, if you're trying to work out whether or not a Unit can assault after it comes out of a Drop Pod, the answer is no. Units can't assault the turn they come into play from Reserves.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/630210/7486060.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/630210/7486060.page GMT Drop pod assault vs Assault vehicle?

You should probably be a little more specific in your question... but generally since the Drop Pod rule is a more advanced rule than the Assault Vehicle rule, it would take precedent.

Yes, assaulting on turn 1 w/ Lucius or Dread claw specifically. My friend is turning blue in the face right now lobbying for the assault.

This applies to infiltrating assault vehicles too, correct?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/630210/7486190.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/630210/7486190.page GMT Drop pod assault vs Assault vehicle?
The infiltrate rules are pretty specific about assaults. I don't have the rules on me now, but I'm almost certain the unit inside is considered to have been deployed via infiltration for the purposes of assaulting. Someone else will have to verify that though. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/630210/7486215.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/630210/7486215.page GMT Drop pod assault vs Assault vehicle? USR trump the basic rules, open top/assault vehicle rules are ancillary. Thanks for the support.

My CSM buddy thought he had a eureka moment with assault vehicles, hahaha.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/630210/7486243.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/630210/7486243.page GMT Drop pod assault vs Assault vehicle?
Lucius Drop pods havn't allowed assaulting on the turn they arrive for some time now.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/630210/7487683.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/630210/7487683.page GMT Drop pod assault vs Assault vehicle? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/630210/7491308.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/630210/7491308.page GMT Drop pod assault vs Assault vehicle?
Make sure the assault unit inside is fearless, though. Failing that pinning test when it gets wrecked is no fun.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/630210/7491504.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/630210/7491504.page GMT Drop pod assault vs Assault vehicle?

The only thing being open topped does for a drop pod is add 1 to vehicle damage rolls. It would be better not having the rule


Dreadclaws are not open topped]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/630210/7498125.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/630210/7498125.page GMT
