There are many people on this site, it seems, with a large knowledge bank about everying in 40k. I was wondering if any BA players or some of those people who know alot about the rules, could help me answer this queston.

Do BA players HAVE to take overcharged Rhinos and Razorbacks OR can they take normal ones from the SM codex. I read the FAQ but it didn't realy clarify for me what my options are. Please share what you know. Thank you very very much.

BA must take overcharged engines I believe

It's not an option for blood angels...its just something that their transports automatically have

just like the landraider automatically has 'power of the machine spirit', a blood angels transport automatically has over charged engines. Remember though only blood angels rhinos and razorbacks have it...its not something you can 'give' to any other tank (i.e. you can't give it to a pred, or a land raider for X amount of points)

tis the price we pay for being mental buggers. The points increase is worth it IMO

BA used to be really really good in 3rd edition. But with the ability to overwelm units in a warhammer fantasy style I guess they had to be tooled down.

I dont think that Rhinos and Razorbacks are that good anymore. They cost more points, they engines fail 1/3 of the time, no rhino rush. I still have one rhino in my army but I removed the razorback. It is just too many points. The rhino is still kinda useful to pop smoke and let my assualt squad hide behind it

Yes BA rhino's and razorbacks have over charged engines. Plus on a good note the BA FAQ on the GW website says that Baal Predators have the machine spirit rule like Landraiders do. (Y)
