Reply To: Forward Deployers

[Stuart Harrison]

FAQ, p28

“If units with special deployment rules are part of the first wave then
their special deployment rules take precedence. However, in certain
scenarios with first wave it also says no units are allowed on the
board during the start of the game. Do forward deployment units still
deploy in that situation? The scenario in question is Key positions,
but there are a few others with the same wording.
If they are part of the first wave, these units (snipers, spotters,
observers…) can deploy as stated even in scenarios that say
‘no units start on the table’, because their special rule takes
precedence. If instead they’re held in Reserve, they cannot. “
