TRC question on 'flipping' an Ork fortress raises the general question on the positioning and facing of WE under certain circumstances including
- Air transports that planetfall
- WE that are moved as the result of a critical

So when planetfalling, do you place the transport dead centre on the co-ordinates, or should you only use the tip of the nose or tail? The obvious issue being that this can provide a considerable extension to assault range of the troops being transported.

For planetfalling I'd assume it to be the center of the model.

For criticals... well if you're moving 5cm you're moving 5cm, front edge to front edge. Not much room to mess around there.

I'd say centered on planetfall coordinates, and if there is a random facing based on the critical, rotate on center.
