BRB says models deployed mid turn count as moving. Kauyon says units cannot move for any reason. If I use the kauyon ability can the FW units deploy their turrets that turn? I am confused about this interaction.

BRB mention *units* not models. It doesn’t mention how to handle this situation.

I don’t think there’s any issue with setting this up and Kauyon due to the turret’s special rules.

Counting as moving and moving are two separate things. Deploying a unit/model is not moving, it is deploying or placing on the battlefield. It counts has having moved, but it did not move.

I agree with this interpretation.

The action of deep striking or similar is not itself moving, so you can do it.

I too agree. Moving is not the same as counting as moved.
