[BF:Evo] Command structure/Fire Teams

[Paladin]

1. If a unit loses it's corporals while still a full squad does it lose it's ability to break into fire teams at a later point in the game or can new fire team leaders be appointed?


2. If the sarge is killed, can you break into fire teams when designating your corporal (2 actions total) as the new leader or do you have to fully reform the squad (2 actions) and then spend 1 action to split (total of 3 actions)?

1. I'd say you could still split the squad

2. The squad has to reform before it can do anything other than react.

Time for a house rule Paladin!

Question can a fireteam that has broken away from the squad be reformed to the squad later?

Nothing in the rule sheet states you can.

 

[Lorcan Nagle]

that's a matter of some contention around here - a lot of people see no reason why you can't, while others cite the lack of a specific reintegration rule

Personally, I play it this way:

1.As long as at least one COMMAND model is in the unit and within command range, the unit is in command.

2. If a fireteam loses it's command model and is within range of parent command model of it's UNIT, then they may rejoin that unit by taking a ready action. (hence it works like losing 1 action) OR it may lose two actions as normal per rule sheet.

3. A fireteam may rejoin it's UNIT at anytime, but it must declare so during it's turn, and must be within command range of the parent UNIT command model.

I define COMMAND model as any model that can act as a fireteam leader.
I define Parent Unit as the 1st fireteam.

1) NO.

I asked Matt sprange this very question, if you lose your fire team 2 leader, no splitting for you :lol:
