Hi
This is the best suggestion to bail out rules so far, but infantry with
armorsave should have a better chance of surviving the situation than those
without. Therefore I suggest that all inf with armorsaves get their regular
saves if the bail out fails.

Hi!

I think it should be simple, regardless the source of the attack.

Rules:

1. A transport vehicle fails it save and its destroyed each occupant roll a
straight bail-out roll of 4+ which is modified by the armor save.

2. IF the infantry stand has a fixed save it may take that save if teh
bail-out roll is failed.
