The receiver intensity profile of an off-axis-Gaussian beam travelling in random medium is formulated. By examining the related exponential terms of this intensity expression, the rules governing the receiver plane displacements are deduced. Off-axis-Gaussian beam is characterized by introducing into a Gaussian beam, complex displacement parameters that exhibit transverse source coordinate dependent attenuation and phase shifts. Our results are applied to turbulent horizontal links. Intensity plots describing the dependence on the source and propagation parameters both on the source and the receiver planes are provided. Even though the normalized intensities of the off-axis-Gaussian beam having the same source sizes but differing displacements in x- and y-directions may look the same on the source plane, they will differentiate after propagation. The views from the progress of an off-axis-Gaussian beam along the turbulent link length show that a source displaced beam will act according to rules set by related exponential terms. An asymmetrical (ellipsoidal) off-axis-Gaussian beam will initially be converted into symmetric (circular) shape at the intermediate link lengths, then it will start to expand in the other direction, thus reverting to an ellipsoid shape whose major axis is now along the transverse coordinate opposite to that of the source plane
