Thunderfire Cannon in Drop Pod.

[Mr Zoat]

The Codex tells you that the drop pod can transfer a single dreadnought. From that you read a single dreadnought and 11 other models. Is there a point in going on?

RAW transports transport units. Not models. Whole units. So having the rule that says that the whole unit must be transported shows which of the two options is the right one. Bizarrely for GW it is the logical one

Let me just quote the exact text to you again.

'The Drop Pod has a transport capacity of 12 models. It can transport a single Dreadnought or Thunderfire Cannon.'

How many models is one Dreadnought? If it can only transport a Dreadnought and nothing else then you seem to be forcing the Techmarine who normally accompanies the Tunderfire Cannon to walk, which everyone agrees is nonsense.

If it is referring to a unit, why can Captain Shrike take a Command Squad when he is not unit name Space Marine Captain?
