killmaimburn wrote:Does this conclude that "units" are still single entitys until the game begins...so for example you couldn't have 10 scouts, put 5 in a storm outflanking and 5 infiltrating.(as you would have to have put the unit on the table before splitting it)Does this then mean that because it is still a singular entity until it touches the table that only one method of entry may be used. (all pod, all outflank, all walk on, all in transport, nothing split bar stuff that comes on in a pod)

Yes, this you can do. If you are taking the landraider as a dedicated transport for the terminators and putting the unit in reserve, you then have to declare if the unit will arrive by deep strike. If you declare this, you then roll for them to arrive as one unit, even though the raider can't deep strike. When they arrive, the landraider must roll on (unless BA which can deep strike) and the termies will deep strike in. You can choose to deepstrike the 10 termies as one unit on the table, or split them into 2 five man combat squads. Once you do this, you can deep strike each combat squad in a different location.

he 10 terminators are 1 unit at this point and are only split when deployed. Since you can't split them when they are put in reserve
