I have some doubts regarding special deplyment units in Escalation Battleplan. The mission tells you to divide your number of units to 3 even groups and the first one starts the game on the battlefield, while rest arrive later in the game from reserves. It is a very cool mission. Probably the most interesting in the strategic aspect from General's Handbook. But how should I treat units with special deployment like Grot Fanatics? Normally When I deploy them I must set the maside and tell that they are hiding in one of my units (and secretly note in which one).
So.. how would my situation look like in example of this army:
1. Moonclan Grot Warboss
2. Moonclan Grot Shaman
3. 40 Moonclan grots
4. 40 Moonclan grots
5. 2 Fanatics
6. 2 Fanatics
7. Cave Squigs
8. 2 squig herders
9. 2 squig herders
10. 3 Fellwater Troggoths
There are 10 units so it would be groups of 4+4+2. Let's say I deploy one unit of moonclan grots, one unit of fanatics, shaman and warboss on the table. What would happen with the second unit of fanatics? They will have to arrive from the reserves as a regular unit?
What about other units, like Cameleon Skinks from Seraphon army or Frostbrow Hunter from Beastclaw Riders.
To me it would seem that if a unit want to use his special deployment he will have to be one of these in the first group, and the rest will arrive later from the table edge....
