Topic: 2 ork questions

1- if you use baddruk you get up to 11 flash gitz if i'm reading this correctly since you "add" him not upgrade a normal git or boy like the other squads do. kommando's and stormboyz for example.
2- if codex really trumps rule book shouldn't dreads be able to cap. obj's, "normally" dreads cannot because vehicles may never yadda yadda. however as codex trumps rule book and dreads "may be taken as a troops choice" well its on page 97 anyway.
Ehh figured we could get some ideas going, the "green"  boards been kinda quiet since the space mongrels have come out.

1.  Actually, the rule book says "may be lead by" - its unclear whether that means "in addition" or "in replacement".  Given that they don't have a nob (which is the model typically replaced by characters) and given the language for Painboys "One model may be", I would also interpret as being 11 models with Badrukk.

2.  Except nothing says the dread can score - please check page 90 of the rules - it takes more than being a troop choice to score (hint - vehicles never score unless their rules specifically say so).

Yep its troops, and just like every other vehicle taken as troops... for example trukks. It won't be a scoring unit.

The codex will overwrite the rulebook, but only if they're in conflict. There is no conflict here.

Trukks have troop type? Well that's great news, thank you, now i can fullfill my 2 troop mandatory selection with just 1 unit of boys and a trukk.

don't be an idiot, he was saying that a vehicle taking in the troop FOC does not count as scoring, such as trukks taking for a mob of boyz

Learn to read, buy a rulebook, open the rulebook to page 87, read the rules for what dedicated transports count as for the purposes of army organsiation, realise that you're 100% wrong and maybe you ought to have checked your facts before attempting to argue with me.

You're done.

My mistake for trying to be sarcastic, what i was saying is:
Hymirl, you are wrong, trukks are not troops, bad example and as such doesn't contribute to the OP's question.
If they were troops silliness start happening like trukks counting as mandatory troop choice, which is OBVIOUSLY wrong, and if the consequence of a statement you tought was true turns out to be wrong, it means the original statement is also wrong. Proof ad absurdum.

I was being sarcastic while pointing out hymirl was talking cross eyed badger spit when saying trukks are of troop type. That is all.

If you actually bothered to check your facts before making an even bigger idiot out of yourself you'd realise that not only am I right but the rule I directed you to covers your so called 'obviously' impossible example. So yet again;

Learn to read, buy a rulebook, open the rulebook to page 87, read the rules for what dedicated transports count as for the purposes of army organsiation, realise that you're 100% wrong and maybe you ought to have checked your facts before attempting to argue with me.

Doubtful that this WOULD happen, seeing as they don't score and they're pathetically easy to destroy... The silliness lies only in the example here.
