As renegades they should totally keep proper Drop Pods.

IF there will be an actual change in the rules for Dreadclaws i will change it.

I would like to re-open discussion on Dreadclaws.

On the BL changes thread, they talked about a few options that included:

1. 30cm range of placement after the LZ determined
2. Extra 15cm move before scatter from LZ
3. Reroll of the 2D6 for scatter
4. Remain as drop pods with Deathwind attacks
5. Remain as a drop pod without deathwind attack
6. No scatter and placed wherever the player wants

I think I got them all and correct.

I would also like to propose two other prospects:

7. Roll 3d6 for scatter and player chooses which two dice to use for dreadclaw landing
8. Remain as a drop pod with no deathwind with a 30cm move as a vehicle

The last one (8) sounds strange, however it does fit in with the vraks books, and allows the player to make a LZ closer to their half of the table and then use the Dreadclaw as an Assault Boat (which is it's intention) with Skimmer rule.

So thoughts?

The only army with viable dreadnoughts? :)

Dude.

We both speak English, but I am afraid your language makes no sense to me....

He meant that with Skimmer Dreadclaws Chaos would have a ground transport vehicle for Dreadnoughts.

Oh

Well what would it matter? Make it they have to enter via planetfall. They can do that now anyway...

Frankly, we have all these ideas. Are they all to be shot down time and again or are we going to move towards something that more represents the vehicle like every other list gets the privledge of (Imp Guard and marines being the main examples)?

Sorry for being obtuse. It was merely a comment that the dreadnoughts would for probably the first time in a marine list be worth taking for something other than suicide or garrison duty!
