    Morpho scanning a motorcycle trooper does copy the Move, bizarrely this has always been the case

    A Motorcycle marker can only be mounted by it's owner, you can't even swap bikes between two Aragoto.

    The same basic rules that do not allow you to take an HMG from one unit and hand it to another.

    This. There is no rule in the game that lets a random trooper use another trooper's Equipment.

    You cannot Dismount in reaction.

    Units equipped with a Motorcycle have two separate pairs of MOV values in their profile. Use the first MOV pair when the trooper is riding his Motorcycle and the second pair when the trooper dismounts and moves on foot.
    Likewise, any trooper with a Motorcycle has two different Silhouette (S) Attributes. Use the first Silhouette Template when the trooper is riding his Motorcycle and the second type of Silhouette Template when he dismounts and moves on foot.

    Basically, the rules for using someone else's motorcycle don't exist

    You can only mount/dismount a bike as the first short skill of an order, so it cannot be done in ARO (see the FAQ)

    As to why Morpho Scan works on a bike? Because there's nothing to say it doesn't. It just copies the target's current profile (and yes I think this is stupid)

    well not true - Scavenger
    if Motorcycle is an equipment it can be scavenged(yes it must be an enemy )

    if morfo scan copy a motorcycle equipment profile bonus how on earth it do not copy +3BS from Fire team core 5 ??
    false argument - there is no rule that allow a unit to put down his weapon - controary to bikes that can be dismounted

    Because a +3 MOD is not changing the trooper's profile.

    Yes, the only way to use someone else's bike is with scavenger

    Fireteams provide a MOD, they do not change the profile. Morpho Scan copies the profile.

    They do not give up the equipment just because they dismount it. They still possess it.

    Add a "pilot" to Biker profile and confusion solved
    and make Bikes a Vehicle - current state just cause masive fuck ups
    No they do not - Dismounted profile do not include Equipment :Motorcycle - so you may not scavenge a motorcycle from unc dismounted enemy unit
    same as you may not get a Symbiot armor from unc unit that got Symbiot but now is unc and by this it mean it looses it symbiot before and changed to a secound profile without symbiot

    Weren't we getting new Spec Ops rules in the Daedalus' Fall update? Is the revamp solely in the form of the rules pdf with Journalist and Cube 2.0 etc? I checked Army, and I don't really notice any changes there. That said, I'll admit I have not dabbled much in Spec Ops rules since no one nearby runs Tournaments with them. Has anyone else noticed something I'm not seeing?

    As far as I've been able to tell they no count as specialists automatically, and sectorials are locked into their line troop for spec ops options.
    I'd love to hear that there's supposed to be more. (mostly displeased that brawlers/Taagma get the Haqq weapon loadouts)

    Yes, as does Hannibal and anyone else in the team when deploying with them.

    In those scenarios or when applying tournament rules which provide the Forward Deployment Level 1 Special Skill to any member of the Fireteam, the owner of Strategic Deployment, and the rest of the Fireteam, can be deployed as if they have the Forward Deployment Level 2 Special Skill.

    Yes. It's explicitly in the rule.
