So, I know that if you take a dedicated transport for a unit, that unit has to be able to fit inside the transport, but they don't have to deploy inside it.
My question is, if you take a unit and a dedicated transport that just meets the capacity requirement, can you then deploy that unit outside of the transport with an IC, which would then make the unit too large to fit inside the transport?

Note that the rule that a unit must fit in its dedicated transport is codex specific; it's not a general rule.

Yeah, sure. At the time you bought the unit, it was legal to buy. At the time you deploy the unit, it's legal to deploy. There's no way for deployment to somehow retroactively make buying the unit illegal.

Deployment has nothing to do with list building. When you build your list, if the unit is able to take a dedicated transport (note certain armies have a restriction on squad size in order to purchase), then the transport is allowed, regardless of how many ICs join the squad in the game.

Greebo had spent an irritating two minutes in that box. Technically, a cat locked in a box may be alive or it may be dead. You never know until you look. In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.

Thanks for clearing that up. Will help with the list I'm building now.
