Questions If I set up a Sanctus using the blips system in GSC, he is still set up during the movement phase (mine or my opponents).
I am then legal in using the "A Perfect Ambush" stratagem, at a cost of zero CP (but it is used that turn) to shoot as if it were my shooting phase.

I know if I deepstrike him he gets it, I guess I am not sure if the blip set-up still qualifies him (it reads like it does) or if I have missed an FAQ somewhere.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/777323/10489844.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/777323/10489844.page GMT Sanctus and A perfect Ambush.

This seems clear to me, but I have been wrong, and there is some resistance in my current group. This is my interpretation:

Then remove that marker before setting up the rest of that model’s unit wholly within 6" of the first model, wholly within your deployment zone and more than 9" from any enemy models (any models that cannot be placed are destroyed).[...]
Emphasis mine. "A Perfect Ambush" can be used whenever you set up a unit, regardless of the reason why it was set up.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/777323/10489846.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/777323/10489846.page GMT Re:Sanctus and A perfect Ambush.

Thanks BCB. That was my logic as well, but nice to get confirmation from someone who has a better consensus of the million different things needed now for 40k.
I feel ya. For what it's worth, A Perfect Ambush does indeed have errata. You can no longer use it after you disembark. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/777323/10489858.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/777323/10489858.page GMT Re:Sanctus and A perfect Ambush.

Still fine to use from blips though right?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/777323/10490084.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/777323/10490084.page GMT Re:Sanctus and A perfect Ambush. Questions

Yes. It works when a unit is set up, it doesn't matter how it's set up.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/777323/10490648.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/777323/10490648.page GMT
