Several times gaming I find myself/others sorta at a loss for what a unit can and cannot do while inside a transport... I understand the "shooting" stuff... its just the other stuff that gets odd.

Example:
Can a Farseer cast fortune on himself/squad inside the transport... can he cast guide on the transport while inside of the transport?

Does wargear work inside of a landraider... IE, TeleHomer/auspex?

Hopefully, this is clear somewhere and I am missing it.

don't ask, don't tell.

Actually, these issues are addressed quite frequently I think. Just look through a few pages of YMDC and you should find some discussions about specific questions you might find helpful. Of course, I could be confusing this with other forums I lurk at periodically.

the answer to both of your questions is yes. i 5th they changed they way units in transports work, they are considered to be on the table and can use all they abilities and gear.

a farseer can cast fortune on himself, his squad, his transport or any unit within 6" of the tansports. he may do this even though eldar transports have no fire points, because his ability doesnt require LOS. if a model has an ability that is measured from them and they are embarked on a transport, then you measure from the hull of the transport.

this also applies to your guy with a teleport homer. an auspex would measure 4d6 from the edge of the landraider, however the model with the auspex would be unable to shoot at anything within that range because the landraider has no fire points. the landraider would be unable to fire because, although the model is embarkd on it, they are considered separate units in all cases.

"What happens inside of transports???"

stays inside of transports!!
where do you think Vegas got the slogan?!

I knew I was missing something. Thanks.
