I'd look it up for you in the Manual, but I am busy atm.     Wink

If the manual was clear, I wouldn't need to ask the question!

If the unit appears as a normal on map unit (4 man jeep in Wacht) then it can be deployed 15 hexes and becomes s a hidden Deception unit. 
The on map unit cannot have moved and must not be disrupted. This can be done on ANY turn. So on Turn 1 you can deploy them or try to move them so that you can deploy them later on and hopefully further behind the enemy lines.

A hidden unit stays hidden and fixed in this hex until -
- its discovered by the enemy and destroyed
- a friendly unit moves on to it and stays there to end of the turn in which case it becomes a regular unit at the start of the following turn and then can be deployed as per the rules above. This is called recall.

A hidden unit not discovered or recalled can be redeployed as a hidden unit 10 hexes. This is only done ONCE a day on the turn after the Midnight turn.

The actual menu's and mouse clicks required to do all this are not that intuitive so I'll knock up some pictures to illustrate it.
