pg 204 "Warhammer 40k is played in a series of battle rounds. In each battle round, both players have a turn... Each turn consists of a series of phases, which must be resolved in the following order:"

pg 211 Destroyed transports "Units cannot declare a charge or perform a Heroic Intervention in the same turn that they disembarked from a destroyed transport model.

If it is my opponent's turn, and he destroys my transport during his turn, when it becomes my turn, am I allowed to charge?

Yes, you are allowed to charge in your turn if the transport was destroyed in your opponent's turn. It specifies that turn, not "your" turn.

So if it's Battle Round two. And it's his turn, my transport dies, then it's my turn, in battle round 2, we still get to charge?

Yes, because the unit did not disembark that turn. They disembarked this battle round, sure, but that is irrelevant as the rules don't care if you disembark from a destroyed transport this battle round.

Correct! This rule was added to get rid of some weird situations players would try to pull.

The most common trick was to move a chaos rhino max distance, then in the shooting phase overcharge the attached plasma gun. If they rolled a 1, the transport was destroyed and the models inside disembarked. They could then charge since there was no restrictions on charging (besides advancing or falling back).

This rule prevents you from doing this (or something similar).

Yes. Battle round has 2 turns. If opponent destroys rhino in his turn then your turn isn't same turn. Could be same battle round but as rule refers to same turn it's irrelevant.

This was to get rid of stuff like suicide rhino with berserkers. Shoot combi plasma with - to hit to self destruct and charge with surviving berserkers. While funny it's still silly and gamey solution so good riddance
