So this came up last night.

Some Grey Hunters multi-assaulted a venom and a squad of warriors of mine. He first killed the warriors, then blew up the Venom.

Does he get to consolidate after the Assault Phase? part of me wants to think yes because he did defeat a non-vehicle unit in assault. But, part of me wants to say no as he did blow a vehicle up and you cannot consolidate after that. We ended up 4+ it, but I wondered what the answer is.

Yes as he was never locked in CC with the Vehicle, but the unit he was locked in CC was "defeated"

If they were both killed on the same turn yes he makes a consolidation as he killed the warriors, if he killed the warriors on one turn and the venom on another one he could have consolidated after the warriors died as he was no longer locked in combat (with the venom)

If every squad was in cc with the warriors then yeah I'd let them consolidate. I'd take this one on a per squad basis. Those that weren't solely in b2b with the vehicle haven't any restriction as I see it.

Even those who were next to the vehicle, are they locked in combat? iirc they aren't therefore they could consolidate as well

Weren't solely in b2b with vehicle. My bad.
