Okay, since Combat Squads are allowed to be in the same transport now, what happens when a tactical squad divides down into a Rhino, specifically in regards to the fire points? Which option do you feel best meets the rules?

Option A: Any two models in the tank can use the hatch. Two marines from squad A, two from squad B, or one from each.
Option B: Only one squad may use the top hatch. One or two marines from squad A OR B, but not one from each.
Option C: Up to two models from EACH squad may fire from the top hatch.
Option D: Other

I chose A as even the BRB states model not unit.

My follow up question is can they target different targets? (Rhino shoots A, squad 1 shoots B, squad 2 shoots C)

I believe they can have different targets, as they are separate units.

I said A as well, but I thought there might be an outside chance that an FAQ would come along and tell us that B was the way it worked. Option C seemed pretty remote, but I included it for the sake of completeness.

Whoever voted B should explain their answer.
