Question about Summmoning...

[TempestBlade]

So I have a question. So say I have Typhus and at the end of turn 1 movement he deep strikes in and gets a 9" charge off and is locked in combat. Turn 2 happens and he is still in combat but doesn't move in the movement phase (since he is locked in combat) can he summon even when locked in combat? I want to say yes because it says he cant move in the movement phase and he isn't. If this works it would be a good way to get some troops up the board fast. Thanks in advance

There is no stipulation about combat so RAW it would be fine.

 

However, what'll most likely happen is that they'll fall back and start pointing Lascannons at him...

[Panzer]

Sure thing. You didn't move him so you can summon with him.

[TempestBlade]

Thanks guys! That may be a good way of getting slow daemons up the board then

[Commissar K.]

Yeah for the current time... Though as a word of suggestion/thought, I deem it very likely that Poxwalkers will be your default better choice with Thypus. You can't summon them and all that but it's much less of a hassle and doesn't disrupt the very likely upcomming Death Guard Legion Trait rules.

So far Daemons and CSM dont mix really well... I hoped Word Bearers would but even they don't mix particularly well.
