I have a question about IC's attached to a unit assaulting.

When attacks are resolved the IC is targeted separately.

Does this mean that when you check to see who's engaged the IC does not count? So if for example he's the only model in range to get into base with a vehicle.
Do the models in the unit that didnt get into base with the vehicle but are within 2" of the IC get to attack as well counting as being within 2" of a model in the unit? Or is the IC the only one who attacks?

The IC is the only one who can attack. In assaults, the IC is counted as a completely seperate unit.

The only time He isn't would be in a Retinue, but I don't have the rulebook on my so I cant say if this would allow a retinue to attack the vehicle.

Thank you very much

If he's in a retinue he's considered an upgrade character until the retinue dies. In that event, he's not treated as a seperate unit and so any member of the retinue within 2" of him since he's in BTB would also be able to attack.
