Can anyone show me the exact location/wording of the rules where the different types of vehicle squadrons are laid out? Particularly the verbiage explaining that vehicles such Tanks/Leman Russes may be deployed as a squadron but can act as individual units after deployment (not having to maintain unit cohesion) while units such as Sentinels/Walkers must deploy as a squadron and maintain squadron cohesion throughout the battle? Where is this specifically stated? I was helping a new guard player through his first game and to my surprise couldn’t locate the actual rule that draws the difference between atomized and cohesive vehicle squadrons (my words for it).

Its on the data sheet.

From the LR sheet:

Vehicle Squadron: The first time this unit is set up, all models in this unit must be placed within 6" of each other. From that point onwards, each operates independently and is treated as a separate unit for all rules purposes.

There is no such rule on the Sentinel sheet it simply says a unit can be 1-3 Sentinels.
