Hello I was wondering if its possible for two driffrent squads to use the same transport? Basicly squad one is 6 troops and squad 2 is 6 troops and the transports capacity is 12. Can they both take the transport at the same time?

Only 1 unit per transport (unless otherwise specified by the transport). IC's can board a transport with another unit as long as there is room, however.

Transport only transport 1 unit, regardless of capacity, as the above poster said. But just to be specific...the IC has to already be attached to said unit when it embarks, you can't hop an IC into a transport that has a unit in it already and declare attachment.

This is incorrect. See page 67, BRB.

Independent characters
embarking and disembarking
If an independent character (or even more than one)
and a unit are both embarked in the same vehicle, they
are automatically joined, just as if the character was
within 2" of the unit. If either an independent
character or a unit is already in a vehicle, the other may
join them by embarking too (assuming, of course, that
there is enough space left).

Well I'll be, I stand corrected. That opens up some new avenues, and here I've been disembarking for all of this time to join an IC!

Thanks for the correction!

As long as there's already a thread titled "Transport Question," can embarked units use teleport stype abilities to leave the transport? Specifically thinking of the Wierd Boy's 'Ere We Go and Cryptek's Veil of Darkness.

The rulebook FAQ clarifies that psychic powers can be used while in a transport, so that would be a 'yes'...
