If I buy a dedicated transport for an IC, can I start the transport on the field and the IC in reserve?

(It was a decoy! )

It won't be a very good decoy as you will have to declare if your HQ is joining any of your units in reserve, but I think you could. Also which HQ can buy a dedicated transport it's normally just units that can?

The decoy was meant more as a fluff reason than an actual tactic.

The HQ in question is a DE Archon - who can buy a venom.

To elaborate, I want to buy a venom, then attach the Archon to a unit of Trueborn in a Raider - using his WWP to deep strike them into position.

Yes, there is no requirement for the unit that buys the DT to start the game embarked on it.

As Nos said, but do remember the Venom is a DT. No other unit than the Archon may start the game embarked on it.

And any ICs that join the Archon, of course.
