Hi all

Quick question as I remember reading it somewhere(or I imagined it..) regarding how far a unit counted as moving when deploying as Deep Strike.
Do they count as having advanced?

Thanks!

No.

They count as having moved for all rules purposes, but not advanced.

They simply count as having moved as per the Reinforcements sidebar rule in the BRB. They do not count as having moved any specific distance. Yes, this causes issues with the Cloudstrike stratagem.
