Re: Dayton, OH. Tournament SATURDAY APRIL 4TH! 2020

I am a very probable (need to change Louisville tournament date).

I have a request, if you look at Heroscape Factions: Thematic Unit Groupings and C3V and SoV inclusive factions you can see there is a distinction between a Flag Bearer and General, and there are more than 6 "Flagbearers" according to the definition/requirement there. Can we allow either a general or Flagbearer according to this definition at this tournament?
Quote:
General:
A General needs to have three things:
1. Theme: Would this unit actually have any leadership if the faction were real? Could this unit be seen behind the lines giving orders? If you answered yes to these questions, the unit probably has enough theme. (Importance: High)
2. Unit control: While this generally means order marker management, it can also be as simple as being a prime bonding option. If the unit doesn’t have unit control, any synergy with the faction, especially other squads bonding with it, gives half pass. (Importance: High)
3. High cost: The General should cost more than the Flagbearer. (Importance: Medium)
Flagbearer:
Again, three requirements:
1. Theme: While the General sits behind the lines and gives orders, the Flagbearer fights in the front and inspires the troops. And a bonus if the unit actually has a flag. (Importance: High)
2. Faction Synergy: Some sort of power that helps other units in the faction. (Importance: High)
3. Low cost: Again, not very important, but the Flagbearer should cost less than the General. (Importance: Low)
The list linked above might be missing C3V/SoV units made the last few years, so here is a compiled list:
