Phalanx Question

[HopLIT]

When forming a Phalanx with a unit, does it take an action to do so? It’s not clear in the rule book whether it’s a special acuont, a normal action or it just happens and the unit still has its double action…p

As written, it doesn’t cost an action. The unit simply has to start a Phase meeting the 4 phalanx requirements outlined on page 22. They get their normal two actions.

It only “costs” an action insomuch as the prior Phase you have to have moved the unit so that it ends the phase in phalanx formation. If you deployed a unit in formation, it seems that it could start turn one as a phalanx.
