I think that this is something to work into Gold, on the basis that most players I knew played it that way in Space Marine 2. The reason being that transports often couldn't enter the same terrain as infantry, meaning that it was often difficult to maintain the 6cm coherency for fire support units, such as Space Marine Devastators, which wanted to enter craters or trenches, where the Rhinos were unwilling to follow.

Plus the fact that it's already there as an optional rule, and the proposed change earlier in the topic about activations was how it worked in Space Marine without alternate movement. It all seems like a sensible revision to the core rules, rather than a more exotic change which would belong in Platinum.

Hi!

Agreed, but should it be implemented in Gold or left for Platinum?

Standard rule for Gold or Optional?

Thoughts please.

This solution would involve so many changes that I'm not sure it should be a good way to explore.

IMHO, the "new" transport rule migh be ian Optional Rule that should also include the optional rule "Transports are Separate Detachments". So all units would be treated the same way and no army would take advantage with mechanized infantry or not.

Or the actual rule should become optional and new one the official one.
