>>>>> Too lazy to check the book right now but I think you can wander off but it might put you out of command range which put the unit on automatic pilot and makes then rather crap. Not sure how this impacts on point 2 below but will do some reading when I'm less tired and drunk.
>>>>> Also for those interested in designing a few units check out the design rules in the platton combat section (not required I have designed a version of all the units needed next time but if you want to change something...). The 'plattons' are:

>>>>> Foreign Delegation*

>>>>> Reason Special Forces (Orbital drop)
>>>>> Faith Assault Crusaders (Orbital drop)
