Need help to see if a tactic is legal:
I activate the Executioner for a double action and all then units inside disembark in B2B contact with the Executioner and then fires as 1 unit. All 4 formations then embark again and then the executioner does it's double move away to safety (from some attacks anyway since its always popped up from being a support craft).
Is thiis a legal action sequence? Remember I'm using the "hit and run" eldar special rule that lets me fire when ever during the doule move. But can i do the disembark->shoot->embark->move->move sequence?
This is the EpicUK Dark eldar list I'm using...
Not quite legal , when the 4 formations dismount that is the end of the first move as all 5 formations are treat as 1 formation (they cannot dismount for free as they could with planetall) and units dismount at the end of a move.
from 3.1.3

It can dismount the transported units at the end of a move in the same way as a normal transport vehicle (ie, the units are placed within 5cms of the transport at the end of a move)
Also 1.7.5 states units cannot mount and dismount as part of the same move.
To do as you stated above you would need to take a double action .
Use 1st move action to move executioner (does not matter if it actually moves ) plus dismount units and all fire at -1 .2nd move to mount base contact units back aboard and "single" move away.
