So I am a little confused on how transports work with allies. Say I take a Space Marines with Inquisition, the inquisition can take land raiders as a transport for henchman. If i wanted to start a space marines squad in that tranport could I? Or do they have to stay outside of it then go into on turn 1? How would that work? How do people run henchmen? Do they or do they just take Cortez? Any help would be nice.Also say I take henchman would they be objective secured troops? Any help would be appreciated, I tried to use the forum but it seems not many use Inquistion.

What I mean is can I take an allied Inquisition detachment with Corteaz and a warband, Corteaz makes warbands obsec, the warband can take a landraider which makes it obsec. Could I start terminators inside of the landraider instead?

Objective Secured is never actually conferred to the Land Raider; the unit inside the Land Raider counts as controlling the objective if the Land Raider is, so their Objective Secured counts. If you put a unit without Objective Secured in a Land Raider it doesn't matter if it was taken as a transport for a Troops unit or not, you don't get Objective Secured.

I thought if a dedicated transport was taken for an obsec unit than that transport becomes an obsec unit? Like rhinos for tacticals and drop pods?

A dedicated transport does indeed become obsec for troop units.
However Coatez doesn't grant obsec. He makes them scoring, but everything is scoring in 7th anyway.
Also a unit cannot start the game inside another units dedicated transport.

I think this is not true. Dedicated transport gains the section of the unit it was bought for. So a Chimera for Troop veterans will be Troop, no matter what is sitting inside the Chimera. If Obj. sec. is granted for Troops (so you are not playing unbound), your Chimera will be Obj. Sec no matter what.

That's correct. A Dedicated Transport has the same battlefield role as its parent.
But you don't get Ob. Sec for being battleforged.

Coteaz doesn't grant ObjSec, nor do his rules mention anything about scoring.
Not in the updated Codex: Inquisition anyway

I thought it said his warbands grant scoring or object. I thought I had newest codex. The data slate.

Objective Secured is a property of a detachment, not a product of battlefield role. So in come detachments (Combined Arms, Allied or even a few formations grant it) "troops" get a Objective Secured.

Since the Inquisition uses it's own detachment, then they will never be Objective Secured barring some special rule.

I'll have to look up when I get back to my iPad. Would a rhino be objective secured when taken by tactical marines?

Only if the Tactical Marines were from a Combined Arms or Allied Detachment*
