librisrouge Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 Query: Ratlings deploy after everything else, friend and foe, do I automatically lose deployment or do they not count as drops?

The Black Guard Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 Personally I would say after both armies are fully deployed but before the first turn begins - so not drops.

librisrouge Posted January 3, 2019 Author Share Posted January 3, 2019 Personally I would say after both armies are fully deployed but before the first turn begins - so not drops.The rule just has then deploy after all other units are deployed, so it isn’t during first turn.

HallofStovokor Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 I believe that they are deployed after scout movements are done. I don't really use ratlings, so I'm not too sure.

mertbl Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 I think they have to deploy using "pick the best spot" or whatever their rule is called and then placed after both armies are done but before first turn begins. Like deep strike abilities, it still takes a "drop" to do whatever the unit is doing.

domsto Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Well as i read it you still deploy them during the Deployment Phase but after every other one is set up. So yes i would say they count as Drops Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/352846-ratlings-and-deployment/#findComment-5227907 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wassa Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 I’d say they count like deep strike units. Say they’re a unit that takes a turn to deploy, but waiting till the end doesn’t count towards being last. I’d say they happen before a scout move too.

Lord Robertsen Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 The way I read / play it they don't count as drops. The armies deploy as normal THEN the ratlings go down. 9/10 times the guard still out deploy the opponent anyways... eldar rangers basically do the same thing.
