What happens when you apply Creed's Tactical Genius rule to a Platoon? is it one squad or the whole platoon, like Al Rahem?

The rule says "Unit". This means just one squad, or a blob. The one unit confers the scout to their transport as well, so they can outflank well mounted up.

Except unless you're playing Apoc, a blob won't fit in any existing transport (maybe IA but I don't have any of the books). Better to give Creed's ability to a Melta/ Plas vet squad so they can outflank and kill those annoying Long Fangs and various other tanks and units that like to hang back and shoot.

Apoc vehicles wouldn't matter; Scouts is only conferred to Dedicated transports.

Although a 40 man blob would fit inside a Stormlord; and it is all GW Baby(model and Rules).

It'd be one squad, so the PCS, a HWS, a SWS, or the giant 50 man blob of doom. You choose.
