Drachnon Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Okay so I have this weird thought in my head but I'm not sure if I'm correct on this. If an IC, let's for example take Dante deep strikes within two inch of a unit in combat does he count as joining the unit? I might have missed something but as far as I can tell you can join a unit upon deep strike if you end up within two inch. Now if this is possible would Dante then join the combat in that same turn and would he count as charging? I think he can fight in that turn but wouldn't count as charging. I thought it might be a fun trick to deny shooting at Dante after deep strike as well as having the option of pulling the squad out in the opponents next turn using hit and run. Anyways any thoughts on legality or uses for this tactic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redfinger Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 I would say no, because a unit that deep strikes cannot assault the same turn it deep strikes, further, the unit that Dante Joined would be in jeopardy of not being able to assault, because they have been joined by a unit that cannot assault that turn, like if a tac squad fired there HW, even though only one model fired, the whole unit can not assault because of it.

Drachnon Posted March 8, 2011 Author Share Posted March 8, 2011 I meant a unit that was already in combat with an enemy squad before Dante deep struck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonaides Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 You cannot join or leave a unit that is already engaged in CC. So no, not really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drachnon Posted March 8, 2011 Author Share Posted March 8, 2011 Where in the rule book does it say so? I can only find it can't join during the assault phase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morollan Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Where in the rule book does it say so? I can only find it can't join during the assault phase. Pg 48, right underneath where it says about the assault phase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
