The Tyrannocyte is a MC with transport, so.. can you place a Tyrannocyte within a Tyrannocyte? And then go even more and place one within another, within another etc.... Like Nesting Dolls.

Now, we like big books. (And we cannot lie. You other readers can’t deny, a book flops open with an itty-bitty font, and a map that’s in your face, you get—sorry! Sorry!) |

You can't. It says they need to be placed in deep strike reserves. Something in a transport doesn't deep strike.

Wrong on so many levels....

For the record, the rules imply that the embarked unit is deep striking, however, the rules never outright state it.

Greebo had spent an irritating two minutes in that box. Technically, a cat locked in a box may be alive or it may be dead. You never know until you look. In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.

Indeed, it would be far to easy for them to add a sentence that reads along the lines of 'Units Disembarking from a Transport, on the turn it Arrives by Deep Strike, also count as having Arrived by Deep Strike.'
Technically I could make an Rule as Written argument that shows only Units with the Deep Strike Special Rule can Embark on a Drop Pod with how bad these Rules have been written....

8th made it so I can no longer sway Tau onto the side of Chaos, but they will eventually turn aside from their idea of the Greater Good to embrace the Greatest of pleasures. |

Doesn't it say at the bottom of the second paragraph, "a Tyrannocyte always enters play using the Deep Strike rules"? If it's embarked in another unit it's not using the Deep Strike rules- placement/scatter/mishap? If a Tyrannocyte entered play from another Tyrannocyte, would it not be using the disembark rules instead?

The carrying capacity of the first pod allows 1 monstrous creature, not 2 or more.
Is the pod carrying a MC that is carrying a MC that is carrying a MC or not?

Yes, however, each Tyrannocyte only contains a single MC.

As a point of interest, the Thunderhawk transporter and Manta allow transports to be transported. However they specifically note that passengers may be embarked on said transports. No such rule exists for the Tyrannocyte. (not definite at all but interesting nonetheless.)
