Sorry if this is obvious but I have looked for the answer to this and must have missed it.

If in my turn I move my BA rhinos 18 inches then in my opponents shooting phase he shoots my rhino and it explodes does that mean the marines I had in the rhino all are now dead because I was blown up when moving over 12?

Thanks for any help you can give me with this.

No. If you had rammed, they'd be dead.

The contents of a transport are only ever instantly destroyed by the "moving farther than 12" " rule when they are wrecked on the same player turn that they moved.

Although GW screwed it up by wording the FAQ "because you can't disembark blah blah." Which would imply that if the vehicle exploded instead of wrecked, the passengers don't die. Because you don't disembark with an exploded result.

**Mannahnin**

The "die because you can't disembark" thing only happens on your own turn. See the FAQ. And also the rulebook, where the rule says "turn", and the rulebook tells you that if it doesn't specifically say "game turn", "turn" by default always means "player turn".

After an asshat pulled that on me on with a fully loaded stormraven I will never let it slide. You have to wreck the vehicle while moving or by scattering one of your blasts onto it or something along those lines to loose the contents.
