Hi there.

Just wondering what the rules for dedicated transports were in regards to their points? I've heard people say that they would cost what it would for the unit type. (eg: Razorback that costs 55pts would now only cost like 15 if taken with SM tat squad) This doesn't sound right to me, do dedicated transports get a reduced points costs or does it only prevent it from taking a slot?

Thanks in advance!

They do not get a point reduction. They also do not take a FoC slot and change their slot type to whatever unit they're carrying (ie a Rhino carrying Space Marine Tactical Squad becomes a Troop choice). So in a regular CAD they can gain Objective Secured.

Unless specifically mentioned in the rules (i.e. as part of the Battle Company rule for SM Detachments), all units cost the points value listed in the codex (plus applicable upgrades). If there's ever any doubt - refer to the codex. The unit entry lists everything that the model can take, and how much it costs.
