http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/69.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net FAQ'd a some point because it's unclear if it was intentional or not, but here's how it works now RAW.

When a unit like a Command Squad joins a unit of Guardsmen, they are now a single unit for the entire game for all intents and purposes. This has been clarified by example where after a squad has been wiped out, a medic model can still revive members of the wiped squad as they are still one unit, and that Character units keep their "when leading a unit" buff even if their bodyguard is dead.

This however changes a little bit of how the revival strats works in 2 ways:
- The downside is that now the entire unit, character included, must be killed before the strat can be used.
- The upside however, is that as usually only the Commander of the Command Squad is the only model with the character keyword and is excluded from the revival strat; meaning that the remainder of the Command Squad will be revived with the base unit. (The Guard Command Squads are a good example of this.) ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/819117/11826647.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/819117/11826647.page GMT
