Fallen11 Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Just wanted to check, rapiers can infiltrate in AL,right? Since crew has legion astartes rule, which means that they get infiltrate if chosen as doctrine. Basically, only vehicles can't infiltrate, unless they are dedicated transport in which case they too infiltrate, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slips Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 AFAIK, yes, that is the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PastelAvenger Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 I'm not sure if they can as the Rapier doesn't get infiltrate but the crew does, the Rapier has a profile so wouldn't it need access to Legiono Astrates? I don't think I would be completely happy with someone doing it but maybe this is being influenced by my personal preferences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dono1979 Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Yep the Rapier Carriage does not have Legion Astartes rule, so cannot benefit from the rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brofist Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 A rapier unit consists of 2 guys with Legion Astartes (infiltrate) and a weapon carrier which they fire. Under the infiltrate USR entry it states that "units that contain at least one model with this special rule..." get to use it. Because of this I disagree. I belie that they can, in fact, infiltrate with the gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dono1979 Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Fair enough, pretty brutal. But I suppose if you are able to get Landraiders and Storm Eagles with Infiltrate, a few Rapier Batteries arent too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fallen11 Posted December 7, 2014 Author Share Posted December 7, 2014 You know what's brutal, when you play vs solar auxilia who has baneblade and 2x imperial knights allied in,lol...rapiers don't help all that much :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amazarak Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Do you have any idea how many thudd guns you could get for the cost of two knights and a baneblade? Jesus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slips Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 More than your available elites slots would permit. ...though Land Raider Achilles also come with Thudd Guns.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Cooper Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 So just to confirm, vehicles in an alpha legion list do not benefit from the alpha legion tactics? :P so no tank hunting legion sicarans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slips Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Yup. Since tanks and Vehicles do not have Legion Astartes: Alpha Legion to gain infiltrate. A dedicated transport carrying a Unit with Infiltrate however... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adra'Melek Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Always be careful to check the specific ruling. Some specifically mention vehicles in a detachment (at least I think they do, can't remember any specifics, Night Lords night fighting?). If they don't then you can't. EDIT: In this case of course the vehicle doesn't need the rule because only one model in the unit needs it, as already stated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
