hey i was just wondering, can a model with a jump pack always deepstrike? i mean if the mission allows it of course. i thought they could but i cant seem to find the page number that says that they can

Most models with jump packs *can* but you have to look at the unit description. Not every model who moves like a jump pack actually has one and thus cannot deep strike

well im actually wondering about chaos raptors and chaos lords with demonic flight. the raptors use jump packs but i cant find the page number where it says jump packs can deep strike

As I said, its a unit special rule not a jump pack special rule.. If the unit doesnt say it can then it cant.. Jump pack is merely a movement mode

I just checked my SM Codex, pg 36 says "Assault squads with jump packs may use the Deep Strike special rule where the mission being played allows it." I would think this would carry on the Raptor squad? As this codex is now 4th edition.

That confirms what I just said heh.. Its in the "unit" description.. That's why it was printed in the Assault squad entry :p Not every model that moves like a jump pack can deep strike. If you play chaos you have the codex, it's in there under the raptor entry or demonic flight

If it's not then they cant deep strike.. Space marine assault squads are not chaos raptors so it doesnt really matter what it says
