So squads will have a way of tracking damage markers. Theres gotta be something more than just "If the scathe zombie card has 3 damage marker all 3 scathe zombies die". Also what if you can have more than 1 squad of zombies. How do you determine which squad members belong to which card? Lots of questions and lots of speculations.

It might be that a squad shares the life total, and once the card has all the wounds required all of the models are removed. That would work with the powers present, but it would represent a big shift tactically in squad effectiveness.

And as far as assigning a squad to a card, that's irrelevant because this game doesn't use order markers. I would think if you summon a second squad of them, you just put three more models on the board and like any common squad, pick any three to move and attack on your turn. If the card gets three wounds, you remove any three squad figures. Or maybe you just can't have more than 1 squad of figures on the board at a time?
