When a model comes out of a transport for the first time, do they count for the movement bonus of gsc 4armed emperor?

Yes, as it doesn’t specify how they are set up. Just that they are set up.

Wow. So that is a 3 out of tranport, move 6 and charge 2d6+1. With an averadge of 8 that is around 17.
Kan I use Genetic Lineage as well, or does starting in transports screw the timing of that? Because that is an aditional 1d6+1, for a averadge of 21.

The Four Armed Emperor rule can be intepreted that way but I really don't think it is intentional.

You can still choose to Advance after disembarking from a Transport, so you can use Genetic Lineage just fine. Automatically Appended Next Post:  Bilge Rat wrote:The Four Armed Emperor rule can be intepreted that way but I really don't think it is intentional.
There is nothing to interpret, it works the way it says it works. Disembarking is, unequivocally, being set up. BRB Page 211 wrote:When a unit disembarks, set it up on the battlefield so that it is wholly within 3" of the TRANSPORT model and not within Engagement Range of any enemy models.

It's not even ambiguous if you wanted to argue that the unit is first set up when the transport is... because, er, it isn't, not really.
The transport rules dictate that you declare which units are embarked before you set those transports up. From that point on, the unit "cannot normally do anything or be affected in any way" ... effectively, unless specifically stated. Ergo when the vehicle is then set up, the unit isn't affected and therefore isn't set up yet.
