Simple question - When I use the Teleportarium stratagem as Deathwatch to deploy multiple units, do I deploy all of them as a single drop, even if they are multiple units? For example, if I spend 2 CP to deploy 2 Intercessor squads, do I deploy 1, then my opponent deploys, then another, or deploy them both at the same time?

The rule for Teleportarium is as follows:

Deathwatch Codex, pg. 95 wrote:TELEPORTARIUM 1-3CP
Use this Stratagem during deployment. For each CP spent on this Stratagem you can set up either one DEATHWATCH INFANTRY unit or one DEATHWATCH DREADNOUGHT in a teleportarium chamber instead of placing it on the battlefield. At the end of any of your Movement phases, any units in a teleportarium chamber can teleport into battle - set them up anywhere on the battlefield that is more than 9" away from any enemy models. You can only use this Stratagem once.

One drop, because resolving the Stratagem involves placing the units in the Teleportarium. That’s how I read all similar Stratagems. An alternate take will be along soon...

You use the stratagem once. You spend between 1 to 3 CP on it, You then put that many DEATHWATCH INFANTRY units into the Teleportarium. So whether you spend 1, 2 or 3CP to put 1, 2 or 3 units into the Teleportarium, it's a single "drop", to use the vernacular of the times.

Just remember to use it wisely, once you use it once, you can never use it again! </SignatureHumour>

Thanks. I had the same assumption but wanted a few other opinions. I would close this thread if I could since I definitely got my answer.
