A friend of mine and I are having a bit an arguement regarding the interaction between pages 48 and pages 67, regarding independant characters riding by themselves in a transport.

His position is that an IC in a transport by themselves will be forced to join a unit should the transport they're in comes within 2" of friendly unit. I argue that this is not the RAW of the rules as expressed on the pages, as the transport vehicle is not the IC.

If you want to be TFG, then yes. If you just want to play the game and have fun, no.

no because as the rules say may an IC and unit may split when leaving a transport (IC stays in the warm) ... whats missing is the line from the 4th ed saying that models in transport vehicals are not on the board (... possibly with a new line saying that speshal rules effecting X" would be taken from the hull ... ie Ld test, or eldar wrath sight tests)
