Yes? The particular sentence he was referring to does not say what he said it does. I didn't say or imply that the rule in question allows him not to Outflank.

Sorry didn't have my book with me so made the foolish mistake of assuming the quote in the OP was a quote.

Still given the quote above we can see that my point stands even though my wording was incorrect.

That is to say that outflank is optional.

I agree and it would be silly otherwise... can't even understand why so something even needs to be discussed to this extent.

quick question related to this.

If a scout unit starts inside a dedicated transport does the rule still apply. The rules make it seem optional

Scouts aren't forced to Make the Scout redeployment, so you can stick to your original deployment place. If you want to scout, a dedicated transport with its unit inside it will be able to Scout as well. If you outflank, the same thing will happen.

However, if you don't start the game with the unit inside its dedicated transport, the transport won't be able to either Scout or Outflank.

Yes it has to be a dedicated transport.
