Do blips count as on the table (can deepstrike them after t3

[1b2a]

I did have a question to that end. When a blip is on the table, does it count as deployed? So if you use the stratagem to remove 3 blips from the table, do those 3 blips count as ground presence and you may remove them? Do they count as having been deployed (towards half points on the table to start), so you can deploy them turn 4, 5, or 6, like the 1cp return to the shadows stratagem? It would be awesome to have almost a battalion removed from the table this way.

Also to confirm, with the retun to the shadows strat (return a unit that was on table at the beginning of the movement phase into reinf.) can they return turn 4 5 and 6? Earlier it was discussed that you could. If you could use the other 3 blip stratagem too, even better,

Step 1: Check the codex
Step 2: check the Faq

Add the following sentences:
‘Any units set up underground in this way cannot arrive
on the battlefield during the first battle round, and
in a matched play game, if they haven’t arrived from
underground by the end of the third battle round they
count as having been destroyed. You can only use this
Stratagem once per battle.’

Return to the Shadows does let you come on after turn 3, because the unit has been on the table. Just remember you HAVE to come back the next turn. You can't keep them in reserves

Do blips count as deployed units? Can I have 100% blips turn 1?

For the purposes of tactical reserves (50% of the army on the board) they do count. You can have 100% of your units blipped.
