HEY all,
Can Monolithes crush people or tanks if they cant move out of the way
Can it scatter off the table and be forced to take a test?
Can a drop pod kill someone if it land on him and he is trapped by other marines?
Oh and what if a monolith deep strike on top of a drop pod who cant move?
And what if the monolith scatter on top of a squad of warriors?
Also,what if a drop pod is shot destroyed by some boring people,does it explode?Provide it is on the table
Thanks for reading and thanks for replying

If the 'Lith scatters onto friendly or enemy models, then, IIRC, you move them out of the way, alhtough the rules don't say what happens to them if there is no room to place them.
'Liths and Pods, can't help you there

Urgh. Your logo suggests you're a native English spearker - would you mind tidying up your post?
Anywho, as to your questions:
There's no official ruling on the Monolith killing units that are unable to move.
The Monolith and the Drop Pod rules only mention reducing scatter/moving models or avoiding terrain - if they scatter off the board then they follow normal Deep Strike Mishap rules.
A Drop Pod, as mentioned, doesn't move people, it avoids them, so killing a unit is impossible.
A deployed Drop Pod is an immobile vehicle once it's entered play - but the Monolith rules make no mention of such a condition and simply says move the models away - so you'd do as the Codex says and move it away.
The Drop Pod can shoot, and be shot at, as per the usual vehicle rules.

It's not inconvenience Tony - we're happy to answer questions. But Dakka has a lot of non-native English speaking readers - and the more we can do to make sure our posts are easy to understand, the better it is for them.
I don't know about you but I speak conversational French and a few bits of Arabic, Spanish, Italian and German. I can just about muddle through a website if it's all written plainly and simply - but throw in a few mistakes and I've got no chance!
So while the English speakers among us can understand your post, some people might struggle.
Hope you got the answers you were looking for.
