If a character has stupidity, the unit he's in takes the stupidity test...
Does that mean the unit is stupid, and also Immune to Psychology?

the text on p76 says:

".. a unit that contains one or more models with the Stupidity special rule must try to overcome its Stupidity at the start of the turn by taking a leadership test.."

theres a debate for this on Whineseer at the moment also. I think someone there posted a pg number to a quote that basically says the RAW of the character is the only one that is immune to psych but the unit gets all the penalties...

on my droid atm so cant search there to link a post for you

I believe it also states clearly in the rulebook that units are only considered to be Immune to Psych if the majority of the unit is immune to psych (rounding up).

That said....

A unit containing a stupid character will suffer the stupidity of his failed LD test but will also can also flee from charges provided that the majority of the unit is not immune to psych. The fact that the character is stupid will not provide Immune to psych to a unit that is not immune to psych. This is determined by the units/models base profile. Exceptions to this are magic spells/items that effect the unit as a whole.

I'd say that's the common sense interpretation, but the language isn't as clear..


"Models that are subject to Stupidity are also Immune to Psychology"

The RAW folks say:
Since my character is stupid, the unit takes the test. Therefore, they are subject to stupidity.
