8th Edition Manta Strike

>>54250048
A manta strike is not a deep strike. Stop thinking it is.

When you manta strike your suits, with drones, you do 'set up' those suits on the battlefield, therefore drones 'set up' with the battlesuits.

I mispoke when I said deepstrike. I merely meant that TECHNICALLY it states they are set up in a Manta Hold, though my side of the argument says it is flavor text, not instructions. Other side argues that since it DOES say specifically Set Up that drones get deployed there, and do not have Manta Strike so they just do nothing. Mostly looking for confirmation of what I believed, since it wasn't mentioned in the Errata and I have seen little to none on forums.

This is rules lawyering on the most ridiculous level. It's so obvious that the drones come in with the suits, it's not even funny. It's how every battrep, especially from GW, does it. There is no discussion.
