The dreadclaw is a bit pricey at 70pts per pod, and doesn't really play the same as the C:SM drop pods, nor does it have the weapons of one either. However, being able to drop a unit of Thousand Sons or something of the sort behind enemy lines is pretty nice.

My question comes from the fluff of the DreadClaw. They supposedly drop their unit and take back off again, however I can't find anything in the rules that points to this. Do the pods touchdown and become an immobilized vehicle (and a free KP) or can they take back off again?

My solution thus far has been house rules when I play with my friends. We cut the points down to 35 to make it equal to the C:SM drop pod, however instead of having weapons we give it the ability to take off after the drop.
