Cornelias Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 been browsing over the rules and can't seem to find an answer on this one, can shrike be used to infiltrate a biker squad by joining it during deployment?

Commander Sasha Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 The question Cornelius is effectively asking is "can an Independent Character join a unit of a different type, such as an infantry captain join a bike squad?" As Cedric confirms, yes they can. A biker captain can join a jump pack squad in the same manner. Joining and leaving units is a function of where they start and finish their moves, how they roll, run or jump doesn't come into it. An infantry IC 2" in front of an assault squad could move 6", the jumpers jump 12" over him, and as long as the last guy to jump is still within 2" the IC will still be in the unit.

Grey Mage Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Yes, he can join any unit during deployment that he could join during the game. So bikers... tacticals... devastators... scouts... assault terminators.... etc. But not say a Dreadnaught, or a *god forbid* Carnifex.

Cornelias Posted April 26, 2010 Author Share Posted April 26, 2010 was thinking more of a infiltrating attack bike squad, could be handy ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/199627-shrike-question/#findComment-2378160 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty the Pyro Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Yes, he can join any unit during deployment that he could join during the game. So bikers... tacticals... devastators... scouts... assault terminators.... etc. But not say a Dreadnaught, or a *god forbid* Carnifex. Actualy carnifex can be joined now, they are no longer units that allways consist of only one model.
