Re: Question Dump: Post Your Questions Here.

In making a custom squad, the thematic elements I desire require that I classify it as an Uncommon Squad.

One army card per squad of 3 figures, individual order marker placement, the same three figures per activation.

It's a bit limiting, and makes them slightly less useful than a common squad... but is there anything (other than there being no precedence for this type of army card) preventing this from being a viable choice?

As far as individuation goes, in Online Scape, they'd be tinted different colors. In physical Scape, they'd have different paint schemes on identical sculpts.

presently Uncommon is synonymous with Unique for the purposes of powers and abilities. I'm not sure how that would mesh with this kind of squad.

Re: Question Dump: Post Your Questions Here.

Well, this is the power that's necessitating the use of the Uncommon flag on the squad units.

Quote:
Space Marine Command Squad
At the start of the game, choose a Space Marine unit to be Veteran Sergeant Raphael's Command Squad. Before taking a turn with Veteran Sergeant Raphael, you may first take a turn with his Command Squad if it still under your control. You can choose only one Space Marine unit for Veteran Sergeant Raphael per game.
I want multiple units of the Space Marine Ultramarines on the field of battle, but I want to make sure that my squad leader can only bond with 3 specific marines... not any 3 who happen to be alive.

Re: Question Dump: Post Your Questions Here.

I can't think of any specific problems with the concept of an Uncommon Squad.

Sounds like markers are in order.

Re: Question Dump: Post Your Questions Here.

Has anyone seen a good Isengard map on the site? I've seen a Helms Deep one and a Minas Tirith map, but no Isengard, despite searching several times.
thanks in advance!
