Sorry, I'm sure this is a repeat, but I want to make sure I have it right:

An IC can join a unit with the Scout USR and outflank with them, even though the IC does NOT have the Scout USR; Because, the IC is joining the unit whilst in reserves.

Yay or Nay?

As will all USRs, if it can conferred to ICs or other models units in the unit it will say so (or say the rule works if only part of the unit has the rule)

So read the scout rule. and if it says something to that effect then yes you can

I have, but thanks for the inference that I haven't read my rulebook.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Actually, the rulebook makes NO mention of units conferring abilities to other units. It merely makes the statement of "If one model has the rule, then all models do" type of statement.

You got to look at the USR specifically

like for the scout, it says "a unit containing at least 1 model with this special rule". since the IC is part of the unit and the unit has at least one model with scout, that unit meets the requirements to deploy via scout or outflank

This reply would have been sufficient to begin with.

forums rules are not to just hand out rules because copyright and could lead to C&Ds so its better to lay out the path for self-discovery

You know if you teach a man to fish, he stops asking you what page fishing for beginners is on but if you just keep telling him...

I didn't ask for a page number. I own a rulebook. I was simply making sure that I understood the rule.
