Thats pretty much it. Can say, a captain (with a jump pack preferably) join Mepheston?

I dont see why not because he is a single infantry model just like a single surviving tactical marine from a squad that just got shot up. You can join that, so you can join Mephy, right?

No. Mephiston is a unit that is always composed of a single model. Independent characters are forbidden from joining such units.

ICs are prohibited from joining units that always consist of a single model... which counts any of the Blood Angel HQ characters without the Independant Character rule.

So no, you can't join an IC to Mephiston.

ouch... mod got ninja'd by 7 seconds!

pretty much agree with the above. i'm afraid mephiston will always be alone. fortunately, he's got a statline that would make a carnifex green with envy so i think he'll be ok.

Oh poop...

Whatever, my dreams of an Improvised Invulnerable save on Mepheston are ruined. But there are always possibilities when it comes to 5th edition - the age of 4+ Cover Saves!

One quick thing though, little OT. Does Mephy roll 2D6 like a squad or 3D6 like an IC for difficult terrain?

He's not an IC, and he doesn't have the Move Through Cover rule. So 2D6.
