An Inquisitor has two mystics in his retinue which is transported in a rhino.

If the squad is in the rhino can the mystics use their psychic powers to direct shooting at a deep striking enemy?

Thanks

Not since the rulebook FAQ came out.

Embarked models can't use any of their abilities nor can they be targeted by any abilities.

Thanks yakface.

Just to clarify. The reasoning is that according to the FAQ the only psychic powers that can be used in a transport are those that replace a shooting attack (and only if the transport has a firing point). The description in the CodexH makes no mention of the power replacing a shooting attack.

Is my reasoning correct?

The Mystic's ability isn't a psychic power so far as the rules are concerned... it's just an ability.

The reason it can't be used is that the FAQ ruled that models in transports are not on the table...
