WWP and transport Vehicles.

Bleaksoul posted this in one of the threads and I thought it worth a discussion.

Yes you do. From the codex. "If a model with a webway portal is in Reserves or Ongoing Reserves, then the model and any unit it has joined or is embarked upon has the Deep Strike special rule. This model, and his unit, will not scatter if arriving from Deep Strike Reserve." Therefore the unit (the firedragons ) and the archon can deep strike without scattering but the vehicle will still scatter. The vehicle is a different unit from the one the model is attached with which is why we can jink and shoot the guys inside at full BS and why the vehicle can shoot at a separate target from the guys inside. The webway portal only allows us to deep strike vehicles that normally cant like wave serpents.

I figure it should be discussed here as opposed to someone wanting C&C on their army and getting a totally off topic discussion.

Lol i just posted as well

Haha! Thanks.

The mods can delete this post then if they like since you have one up.

Thought this would be worth posting as every dark eldar player (including myself) have played it where the vehicle does not deep strike. I am still of that opinion, but you have valid points

It comes down to which one of the rules you follow, the reference sheet on pg113 or what the codex says on ph107-108. If you follow the reference sheet you also lose the shadow field once you take a wound instead of at the end of the phase. Also the endless debate as to which one to follow or supersedes the other will now take place.

Don't you love inconsistent rules writing?...

That is one thing Warhordes has done really well. They have written rules that are clear to their intentions
