So I have been looking for a while and I can't seem to get an answer on my question.

Can Jump infantry now ride in normal transports considering the fact they are bulky?

Looks like they can I was looking for this as well, until I realized that i could only fit 5 on a land raider... (Chaos one), which wouldn't make it optimal, however yes, looks like you can.

No, because transport rules on page 78 say that only Infantry (not Jump or Jetpack Infantry) may normally be transported.

Edit: looks like I was too slow

Page 47 "...'Jump' is not a classification..." "Jump units would therefore share two sets of rules, the Jump unit rules, and those of their base type. Jump infantry would, for example, follow all the rules for jump units and infantry."

Jump Infantry is not its own thing. A jump infantry unit is jump and infantry, and uses all the rules for both. Infantry can go in vehicles, and nowhere does it say jump cannot. So I'd say they can go in vehicles now.

EDIT: Lol nevermind, didn't realize the page 78 but was a direct quote. Blew me out of the water.
