so I have a question.

If your transport is loaded with a full unit (s) and it assaults. The enemy can overwatch. What if that overwatch kills the transport and most of the units inside survive.

1. In the midst of your enemy what are the specifics of deploying the survivors?

2. The survivors are now NOT in a transport so is there a technicality that would NOW permit them to assault?

Or is there some phase criteria that prohibits this?

3.What about your next turn if your transport survived. You wish to disembark. How does that work with the transport perhaps surrounded by enemy units. ???

any clarifications known....please share

The way I would read it, based on what we've seen, is that you disembark like normal, 3" from the hull, and can charge after. I can actually see this being a strategy people use for fragile vehicles that deepstrike.

Second, it straight up says in the 12 pages that you can't disembark if surrounded and that if the vehicle dies and you're still surrounded the unit dies.
