Play or Put in to Play unit on a Quest.

By Horatius, in Warhammer Invasion Rules Questions

Hello,
if I play "Call for Reserves":

Action: Return target unit you control to its owner’s hand. Then, put into play from your hand a unit with printed cost 3 or lower.

Can I play the unit on a quest?

From the rulebook:
To send a unit on a quest, a player plays the unit on top of the quest card when he plays that unit from his hand.

I know that there is a difference between "playing" and "put into play" (via card effect) but I would like a confirmation to the fact that this difference not allow me to play the unit on a quest, because the card is in both cases played from the hand.

No it isn't, in the second case it is put into play from your hand ;) You can only play cards on the quests (wating in ambush allows it), but not with put into play effects.

Ok, thanks for the prompt reply.
