Am I playing this correctly?

Icons of old caliban says a darkshroud can't use itself to gain
Fear and Stealth. The formation says that The darkshroud and land speeders form a single unit (following the vehicle squadron rules)

1. Do the land speeders in the same unit still get the stealth buff as they are a friendly DA unit within six inches?
2. If #1 is yes, Since Stealth confers to whole units, does the darkshroud get Stealth because it not using its own Icons but instead having it conferred onto it?
3. Does that also mean the darkshrouds own shrouded rule confer onto the speeders, give the whole unit a constant 4+ cover?

Shrouded does confer to the unit. I believe the rule forbids the darkshroud from gaining stealth though

"If you wait a few months, they'll pick one of the worst codexes and they'll nerf almost everything, its an abstract sort of balance, but it's the sort of balance gw likes... "

I'd say, if stealth is radiated out by a model to the unit:

The Darkshroud gets stealth while at least one Landspeeder (Normal) is alive.

My WHFB armies were Bretonians and Tomb Kings.

I am sure (someday) it will be FAQd but for now as long as 1 speeder other than the darkshroud is alive it seems they would get the benefit.

Blood for the bloo... wait no, I meant for Sanguinius!

If a Ravenwing Support Squad contains both a Darkshroud and one other Landspeeder, the unit has both Shrouded and Stealth.

"'players must agree how they are going to select their armies, and if any restrictions apply to the number and type of models they can use."

This is an actual rule in the actual rulebook. Quit whining about how you can imagine someone's army touching you in a bad place and play by the actual rules.

When people ask, "What's the point in understanding everything?" they've just disqualified themselves from using questions and should disappear in a puff of paradox. But they don't understand and just continue existing, which are also their only two strategies for life.
