So I looked this up on the forums and read a couple threads but really did not get a clear understanding of the issue.

Here is the scenario:
I have Melta vets in a chimera from previous turn.
I move said Chimera 12 inches.
I disembark my melta vets
My melta vets shoot at an enemy unit.

Here are the questions:
Can I disembark a squad after moving at cruising speed?
If it can disembark, can it fire after disembarking?

I looked through the rule book and found that passengers cannot fire from the vehicle if it moved at cruising speed, but that is really about it.

Thanks!

yes, you can move 12" and disembark.
yes, you can fire after disembarking.
no, you cannot fire unless you disembark.
