Hey all.

Im trawling through some of my minis to see if ive got anything i can paint up for the GD this year, and ive dug out a vyper jetbike kit. The only problem is, does anyone know if can i enter it at all?

A section of the WH40k vehicle category description from the GW website reads

This category includes single bike-mounted characters if this is appropriate to the army in question (eg, a Space Marine Captain on a bike)

With a gunner and a pilot, in theory, no i cant, but on the other hand it is \"appropriate to the army in question\" so im a little confused.

Many thanks from a GD newbie

I think that your o.k. a vyper is a vehicle. A bike is\'nt it just adds to the stats of the rider.

so two crew on a vehicle is fine :)

Perhaps I got the question all wrong, but I think what this quote is trying to do is exclude single bike-mounted characters from the other categories? So a person cannot enter such a character into the single characters category.

A couple of basic rules of thumb:-

If it\'s got an \"armour value\", it\'s a vehicle.
If it\'s got more than one person (ok figure) as crew, it\'s a vehicle.
