This has got to be the area I'm most hazy on at the moment so I was hoping somebody could make it clearer, thanks in advance.

Does a dedicated transport have to stay in coherency with the unit that purchased it? (I presume yes but my opponent never does this because it dosn't say you have to in the rulebook -.-)

If it is immobilized will it be destroyed if the infantry leave it in the same way as a vehicle squadron?

Does the unit with the transport count as a whole unit for shooting purposes or does the opponent pick either the transport or the infantry to fire at?

If they are on unit for shooting purposes, Say if a unit of guardsmen with 5 lasguns and one lascannon hit a unit with 5 fire warriors and a Devilfish, could you claim the lascannon and 4 lasguns hit the warriors and 1 lasgun hit the Devilfish? (Therefore it cannot be destroy)


Damn I am a very confused individual :P Nobody will answer me now because they don't want to read all that

No it doesn't it operates seperatly (a good example of this is Tau Pathfinders can be deployed on the table whilst the mandatory devilfish starts in reserve in some missions)

It operates independantly so there is no need to 'leave it'. The have to requirement to remain in coherancy with it.

No they do not, and both are subject to target priority checks. So placing the vehicle infront of the squad can either block LOS or force your opponent to pass a target check to fire at the partially obscured squad.

If they are on unit for shooting purposes, Say if a unit of guardsmen with 5 lasguns and one lascannon hit a unit with 5 fire warriors and a Devilfish, could you claim the lascannon and 4 lasguns hit the warriors and 1 lasgun hit the Devilfish? (Therefore it cannot be destroy)

Its a seperate target. They can only target the squad or the fish unless they have a special rule to say otherwise.

Don't worry about it, we all have noob moments. Even those of us who've been playing for most of our natural lives. (now I feel LAME)

xD Now I think about it, I could've worked out the answers to most of them If I had been told the first one.
Thanks

I have a question What if you have 3 Piranhas and one gets immoblised can I opt to destroy it so I don't have to stand still?

[executioner]

Yes. Simply put..

Umm, don't skimmers crash anyway if they get immobilised.

Not if they didn't move over 6"

I have another question
Do you roll for the team and transport seperatly when calling in reserves, or do you roll 1 dice for both the transport and the unit mounted in it

[Kai]

I'm not 100%, but I'm fairly sure that you make one roll for them combined as long as the squad arrives mounted in the transport.

[icer190]

You roll only one dice.

Do you roll sperately for a drop pod and the squad it brings in?
No, they come in together.
