Stupid friends arguing about a simple rule. I'm reffing them to this thread

The rulebook says they MAY deep strike, which doesn't mean they have to, obviously.

This.

Your friends are crazy. The only things that have to deep strike are things with special rules requiring them to deep strike. Drop pods, daemons, a couple other things.

Thank you. I don't know why I put up with these ash wholes they should be reading this as I write.

These are just regular assault marines. They aren't forced to LIKE I SAID PATRICK

To expand on what Raxmei said, these units will often say that they are required to start the game in reserve, so if a unit doesn't say this then they are not forced to.

Reserves can just walk on i thought? on turn one right?

They CAN walk on, but not on Turn one, unless you're playing DOW.
