Subject: Surrounded transport being able to Fall Back?

Came up in a game yesterday.
My Rhino, filled with Deathguard, was surrounded by my opponents' Striking Scorpions. They didn't kill it in close combat though.
The following turn we had a discussion if the transport could Fall Back from combat, it being a huge tank and all.
Is this possible? We rolled off in the battle to be able to continue, but I thought I'd check here too.
Thanks in advance.

No, unless it has FLY. Movement core rules - you can't move through models.

Thanks, Silentz!
Guess the discussion hails from the previous edition Tank Shocks.

Just to clarify: "being a huge tank and all" doesn't matter, if it is fully surrounded it cannot disengage. But if it has enough of a gap to squeeze between bases it may.
Models with FLY can allways nope out of combat; some of them even wear it as their hat for a nope and re-charge or nope and blast away.

This is my Rulebook. There are many Like it, but this one is mine. Without me, my rulebook is useless. Without my rulebook, I am useless.
Stop looking for buzz words and start reading the whole sentences.

Did you disembark ? Sounds like you didnt, but you can. You must stay away 1" from enemy models, you must be within 3" from the transport, and the unit must be in coherency.

Yep, definitely a reason why there are only a handful of units with both Hit and Run and Fly
