So of course I'm bringing the Draigo/Gravturion star with Tigirius attached.

can they all arrive together on turn one? or does every unit have to have the deep strike rule?

For a unit to be in Deep Strike Reserve, all the models must have the Deep Strike rule.

Draigo has Gate of Infinity.
Just deploy and then Gate to wherever you want to go.

Agree with Greywolf, you can't place them in DS Reserve since Draigo is the only model with DS. With Draigo I wouldn't put them in Reserves anyways since they might not come in on turn one for sure. You should check with your TO to see what the official stance on how GoI works for things like teleporters and intercept rule since there is some contention concerning that.

Yea they cant deep strike in from reserves turn 1

But they can gate at their leisure

Intercept happens at the end of movement. No ambiguity, straight from the usr.

Teleport homer: friendly units composed entirely of models in terminator armor... Straight from the blood angels codex p. 106. Centurions are not in terminator armor.

Even if they all had DS, if draigo is attached an unit from not the NSF he would count as from that unit, and not an unit from the NSF detachment while attached. Draigo cannot even benefit from any part of RoT while attached to an unit outside of the NSF.

But yeah every model in unit has to have DS.

Sorry, don't know if Marines have it, but I know that Dark Angels have a "Locator Beacon" that lets any model arriving from DS not scatter. And the question I would confirm is whether or not GoI counts as having come from reserves or not. I'm not looking to get this thread going on that subject since it just got locked, but different TOs might have different opinions so I would recommend checking with them to be sure you know exactly how your combo would work in this particular tournie.

Are you really trying to restart the thread that was locked not even an hour ago?

Again, not looking to start a war here, but this statement is in contention, so if you have any combos that work off that idea I highly recommend checking with your TO to get an official ruling.

IIRC locater beacon works on deep strike, and does not require the unit to be in reserves or state anything about reserves.

So in regards to gate it would work regardless of the reserves issue.

so there you go, glad I could waste everyone's time with that.

Blaktoof, you didn't even have to try and recall, because I wrote out the rule a couple posts above you. If you were gating units full of terminators, then yes it would work, but in the context of this topic, it does not work because centurions aren't in terminator armor.

talking about locater beacons not teleport homers. someone else brought up locater beacons, was just clarifying that locater beacons have no wording regarding reserves or deep strike reserves, just "deep striking models" models arriving by gate- regardless of other threads discussion do arrive by deepstrike and would benefit from it.

all i was saying

This is a completely different situation, and blaktoof is entirely correct; Independent Characters joined to a unit count as part of that unit for all rules purposes so cannot benefit from his access to Rites of Teleportation; if he counts as part of a Space Marines Centurions unit for all rules purposes he does not qualify as a unit from the Nemesis Strike Force Detachment.

Agreed, this is nothing like the previous locked Thread, ICs are part of a Unit "for all rules purposes".

Any Unit with Draigo attached does not get RoT.

Any NSF Unit with some other IC attached would benefit from RoT.

You simply follow the wording of GoI. GoI grants permission to remove the unit from the table and immediately return the unit using the rules for Deep Strike, which means that any restrictions preventing access to Deep Strike are met by the successful use of the power.

Which is to say, don't over think it, just do what the power tells you to do.
