I assume the following is allowed:
Make squad with Palpatine order 66, Pallaeon and some random clones.
Since that old Palpatine is only useful for bringing in clones i want to replace him with some other imperial character.
Is it allowed? Benefiting from his CE during squad-building, then replacing him during setup?
yep.
I understand the reasoning behind this ruling. The Pellaeon CE doesn't take effect until AFTER both squads have been set up on the map. So you can do this situation with Palpy, Sith Lord because when you built the squad it was legal.
Here's my question:
Let's say you have Admiral Pallaeon, IE Thrawn and General Rhom Moc (who costs 39 points). Can you swap out Moc for Grand Admiral Thrawn and have both Thrawns in your squad?
I will support any answer given, but would like to know the logic behind it.
There is a prescedence for "Yes" because of the quoted senario above. This swapping of characters is after set up and after you have legally built your squad. There is also the prescedence of having Betrayal occur to give you another character in your squad with the same name or uniqueness.
Of course the answer could be "No" do to uniqueness, but I thought that only occurred during squad construction. In any case, I would like to know what the official answer is and the thought process involved. Thanks and cheers!
