To hell with what a store troll says, the rules them self say that they

This, on the other hand falls into the the realm of "house rule". For
the record, I have never seen a 3 bike stand out side of the White Dwarf
or in the E40K books, so I would call this pretty close to universial.
I stand my bikes on 20x20mm 2 per stand, for what it is worth, execpt
for "command" type dudes, which get standed 1 per chit.
