OK, do units get to roll their magic items when saving from spells?
For example, the lightning strike spell requires a unit to generate a save or die. The shield magical items and some d10's are components that are rolled whenever the unit must roll. So, if a lightning bolt targets a unit with a shield, does it roll the shield and save(basically automatically)?
Also, do army targeting spells like flash flood also allow units to use maneuver items and so forth.

Magical items are not rolled during individual unit rolls (such as against a Lightning Strike spell).

Magical items are only rolled during an army roll.

Further more, individual units do not carry specific items*, even if there is only one unit in the army that is capable of carrying the item.

*their might be one exception that when a unit is moving into or from an army. Since unit's enter and leave armies one at a time, there is a specific one who carries the item.

Something I haven't considered until now... if you have units at home and units/MI in reserve. Can you reinforce just the MI from reserve to Home or must a unit go with them?

Magic items cannot "move" without a unit. For a real fun example look at Wayfare. While the medallion provides the "power" for the movement, a unit has to go with it. Also spells such as Path move units. The only exception (you knew there had to be one), is Airy Acquisition. It moves only the magic item.

An even more fun example is when a Kings' Die is "holding" a magic item in reserves by itself. Another unit has to move into reserves, and then move out of reserves in order to move the magic item.

Also note that when I say "magic item" I'm referring to 4-sided magic items, artifacts or medallions. They all follow the same rules on movement.

OK, if I path a unit someplace, can it carry a magical item with it?

Call of the Wild, Roar, units killed under an Open Grave, Firewalker movement, the list goes on. Anytime a unit moves for any reason from one terrain to another, or to/from reserves, it can carry a magic item with it as long as unit has a match for the color of the magic item.

Can earthen armor provide saves against lightning strikes and other targeted spells?

If they are 'individual saves' then that is exactly what earthen armour is for. it provides no saves to an army roll, but does to an individual roll.
