Ferban Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 I'm almost positive that I read somewhere that the units within a Skyvessel do not count toward the number of models on an objective. But I've looked through the FAQs and can't find that info now. Did I make this up or can I just not find that rule? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Beliman Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 The Flying Transport rule from their own warscroll: Quote Models in the garrison are not counted towards gaining control of an objective. Yep, it sucks but it is what it is. At least our ships count as 2 instead of 1! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Dogmantra Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 I can't find somewhere that explicitly rules it out, but the core rules suggest quite strongly that garrisoned models do not contest objectives: 18.1.2 Contesting Objectives A model must be within 6" of an objective in order to contest it. 17.2.1 Joining a Garrison Units that garrison a terrain feature are removed from the battlefield and are assumed to be ‘inside’ the terrain feature. The key part here is that models in a garrison are removed from the battlefield, which means that they would not be within 6" of the objective as they are not on the battlefield. Defensible terrain features are also called out as being controlled only by the player that garrisons them rather than the traditional way. While this isn't direct evidence, you could infer support for my reading here, because if models in garrisons did count towards control, there would not be a need for a different way to control defensible terrain (as the models inside would almost certainly outnumber those outside).

I'm almost positive that I read somewhere that the units within a Skyvessel do not count toward the number of models on an objective. But I've looked through the FAQs and can't find that info now. Did I make this up or can I just not find that rule?
Thanks!
