This happened to me at the weekend - not really sure if it was legit but the D6 was not in my favour.

Tervigon rolls GOI in its psychic powers. Casts it, then spawns gaunts which move/shoot/assault. is this allowed? My argument was that the Tervigon had "moved" before it had spawned gaunts, whereas his argument was that casting a psychic power wasn't strictly movement.

He was cheating. While he was correct about casting Psychic power is not movement, resolving the DS portion Gate to Infinity is movement as per DS rules and thus spawning gaunts is not allowed.

Exactly. Your opponent was incorrect. He may not have been completely aware of it. But be sure to point this out to him next time you see/play him so it doesnt happen to any more of his opponents.

A model which deepstrikes may not move any furhter

DS is therefore movement.

Pity. That would be a really fun combo otherwise.

All us 'nid players jumped on that one when the BRB dropped to see if it would work. We discovered it did not. :(

Still it does let you do fun things like run flanking broods up either side of the enemy position, then Gate to which ever one needs the support more.
