He’s right, you can’t assault out of a Ravager. Because a Ravager hasn’t got a transport capacity 😛

Man, what is it with people trying to “cheese” as Darrel put it???

The vehicle deep strikes.
You can’t assault after deep striking.
Where’s the question??

Isnt it written in the big red book units in a vehicle that deep strikes cannot assualt due to the strain from deep striking or something along those lines?

@Darrel if your playing the planet strike expansion, and you have entered play via deep strike AND would be allowed to deep strike this way in a normal game, then you can assault out of any vehicle.

eg/

1) drop pods can deep strike normally, therefore in planetstrike, the squad that uses it can assault on the turn it deep strikes.

2) skimmers can deep strike in planetstrike, but if the (transport) skimmer can’t normally deep strike (like a tau devilfish) the squad inside can’t assault.

hope this helps!

what do people think of that facet of planetstrike anyway? have always wondered what people thought of it and the balancing issues around it

Yes and I think it would be silly if the attacker had to just stand around whilst shot at…in 40k universe assault units would get right into the enemy as soon as they’re down it seems a bit unrealistic if they have to wait. Of course there is balancing issues but on the whole planet strike seems pretty balanced to me: defender gets to place cover etc.
