bradstorm Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Hi everyone First post so here goes..... I've come up stumped on a vehicles squadron issue: If only one vehicle in a squadron is within the range of a model that gives an invulnerable save, or provides a cover save from a rule such as Stealth, is that benefit conferred to the whole vehicle squadron. In context: my Ravenwing support squadron of 5 land speeders is within 6" range of a darkshroud, which provides Stealth rule to all friendly units within 6". I cant find anything in BRB page 77 that disallows this, or anywhere else in the book or FAQs. Would the vehicle squadron be described as a unit for this purpose? As the rule doesn't state units 'wholly within' the 6", like other more specific rules do, would this then be allowed? Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.

greggles Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 It appears that the squadron is considered a unit for purposes of victory points. (If that helps). In the faq it states if you abandon a member of the squad, that abandoned member is now worth a separate victory point from the squadron.

Grey Mage Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Squadrons are units, and so yes they would gain the benefit if it was granted to 'units within X inches'.

bradstorm Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 Thanks for the replies, almost seemed too good to be true, but I guess squadrons do have their negatives too. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/286545-vehicle-squadrons-partially-within-area-of-effect/#findComment-3588776 Share on other sites More sharing options...
