Do they count as seperate entities, eg, a Dreadnought and a drop pod are both worth a kill point each, or would you need to kill both the Dreadnought and the drop pod to get 1 kill point?

And for victory points, would something like a 10 strong tacticall squad with a rhino DT count as 11 models, or are they treated sepeartely?

They are their own, separate, unit.

You recieve a KP for every unit you destroy (usually). So a drop pod and dread are worth 2 KP (1 each) as they are seperate units and operate independantly.
Same goes for combat squads.

As for VP, count them as seperate units when working out VP. So 10 marines in a rhino (one FOC choice) becomes a unit of 10 marines and a tank. Each generating VP as the mission describes.

I thought they'd count as seperate units myself, but couldn't see anything in the brb and have never come across it post game. Thanks!

If they were the same unit they would have to:

maintain coherency (watch as your dreadnought cannot move more than 2" away!)

Fire at the same target. (useful!)

A unit is something you have to stay in coherency with. Thats it - fromt he definition of units in the BRB.

This is on P3 of the rule book - Models and Units.
