Turn 1, you arrive, you don't have to disembark, but you cannot assault.
Turn 2, you can assault away, even if embarked as the pod is open topped

Deep Strike...
In that turn’s Assault phase, however, these units cannot charge. This also applies to units that have disembarked from Transports that arrived by Deep Strike that turn.
Nope. There is/was a forgeworld one for 50 points that let you explicitly assault out of one, but definitely not the regular ones.

No. A unit that arrives from reserves cannot assault, even if the vehicle they're disembarking from is an assault vehicle.
If the question was about the forgeworld pod, the answer is still no on the turn it arrives. The compulsory disembark isn't present on the larger fw pod, so you can stay in it for a turn then disembark and charge on the next turn.

The exception I was specifically referring to was the Dreadnaught Assault pod which, as I understood it, explicitly allowed you to assault T1 after deepstriking and disembarking:

It used to. Now it just lets you stay in the pod on the turn you arrive and disembark and assault next turn.

I'd have to dig through stuff but I was like sure there was a Chaos Drop Pod that allowed a first turn assault.

If I lose it is because I had bad luck, if you win it is because you cheated. |

Its rules have been updated, now it's just a flyer with the assault rule

The dreadclaw has never allowed turn one assault, as it never had drop pod assault, so required a reserves roll.
