Hey guys,

Hate to bring this up, but has there been an official confirmation on this or did I skip over something in the rulebook and missed this?

They are a seperate unit in all respects.

Dawn of War deployment gives extra info, but there is nothing to say they are a single unit--they do not have to maintain coherency, shoot at the same target, etc.

Look at page 92 of the main rules under multiple unit choices.
Tells you that even if you can include several units as a single FOC choice, (and even lists dedicated transports as an example) that "...these units operate and count as separate units in all respects."

So as Kirsanth said these units do not need to maintain coherency or fire at the same target, and in an annihilation mission, they are worth 1 KP each.

If dedicated transports and their squad were one unit then how would the squad get on-board when the entire unit is required to embark?
