Terminators in a drop pod

[joescalise]

Hello

I am trying to find out if you can put Terminators in a drop pod. I am using Vulkan and I want him with his terminators and I want to use the drop pod to get him in close. the rule book says they count as two and cannot use a Rhino and Razorback, it does not say they cannot use a drop pod.

Thank you for your help.

IF they can take one it would be listed as an option under their dedicated transports. Drop pods can not be bought as a FOC slot. Right now I think the SW are the only ones who can place termies in a DP (not sure on BA).

Um BT as well matie. they have it under drop pod assult. The following units may have a drop pod "terminators, crusaders, command etc"

Unless you are Black Templars or Space Wolves (and Blood Angels until April 3rd), the only way to get Tactical Dreadnought Armor onboard a Drop Pod is to attach a character wearing such armor to a squad that has a dedicated transport Drop Pod.

A drop pod is a dedicated transport.

It can only be used by the unit/vehicle that bought it and any attached independent characters up to its transport capacity.

As far as I can recall SM terminators cannot buy a drop pod as a dedicated transport.

Following the above proviso's the terminators may not enter the battlefield via drop pod.

Does that help?

that answers that question, thank you all for answering that for me. I guess I have to walk or take a landraider.:D

you could Dpod Vulkan with a squad and a locater beacon on the pod, the DS the termies beside them...not really ideal but an option...

Terminator armour itself allows you to deep strike.

But vulkan himself cannot and he wants to keep the two together which limits his options to a LRR a LRC or wandering around on foot
