Placing models arround a WWP

If you get lucky and roll all your reserves for example ten wych unit, a couple of Talos, etc, they all don't psychically fit around the edge of a small blast marker. How do you place them? and can they then move in that turn, I know they cant charge but can they move? like head for cover etc. ??
Thanks

They move as normal when coming out of the portal treat it as a table edge.

Oh I see so you'd place the ten wyches move them 6" then place the Talos move it 6" and so on ta

no, its treated as a table edge. So you measure 6" away from the rim of the portal and then place a model there. You treat as if the model is actually off the board (or in this case, under the portal) with the edge of the base touching the rim of the portal.

If you are moving into terrain, you take your difficult terrain test first, and then move the corresponding inches.

Also to add that enemy models can block the WWP just like they can block your deployment zone board edge.

If you cant fit all of the models you can always have them come off of your board edge. Nothing makes you come through the WWP.

When I ran my 5th Ed WWP list, i would always run two. I would make sure to place a WWp close to my board edge incase someone bloacked it. This would really only work in Vaguard Deployment now as the long edge is your board edge.

I always try to take things that can fly over units as well like Reavers and Scourge. This helps to keep it clear as well.

So if an enemy unit surrounds the WWP your models cant come out of it? that would suck. So you're saying fly reveavers over them if they do that and hack them to pieces

This is really off topic but may I ask, if Eldrad is manning a quad gun can he use is psychic abilities such as guide, fortune, doom and shoot the quad gun too? those three psychs are not shooting attacks so I figure he can. I have an Eldar allied detachment.

He can cast any of the powers you mention but not Eldritch Storm or Mind War as these are used instead of shooting attacks.
