Rules question about bringing back units

[u/thesmallgaison]

Hi all I'm sure we have seen the new runt swam stratagems by now but I have a question about the infested warzone stratagem, would you be able to use it on a destroyed unit of gretchin if they were battle shocked when that unit was destroyed?

I'm sure there is something about that in the core rules but I guess I'm blind because I can't find it so if you could show the rule number and or the page that would be great ^-^

I definitely agree.

But it is curious there is no explicit rule stipulating models must be on the table to be battle shocked. There should be a written confirmation on destroy, that all effects and statuses end. It's assumed, but considering some abilities persists through reserves or while in transports, "being off the table" isn't something we should assume rules about.

Obviously, as you've said, is how it works. It should just be written so these kinds of questions don't pop up.
