Can you please once and for all include what rule always has to be applied first: Mob Rule or Young Gunz. Otherwise this might be exploited as needed.
No they both apply and are supposed to be 'exploited' on purpose. We want big bad escort squadrons running around. Having both these rules in place encourages that. It encourages what Orks are supposed to be about, a lot of escort ships!
I still have NO idea how the squadrons are supposed to work, PLEASE, someone explain it to me.
Unless it's changed then I think this is how you do it:
First you determine the size of the battle. Let's say 1500 pts.
This means (as written now) you recieve three Warlords.
Then you determine how many extra re-rolls you want to purchase.
For every re-roll, you MUST get one escort squadron AND one cruiser or Battleship.
Let's say you have a total of 7 re-rolls in your fleet.
So you must buy at least 7 escort squadrons of at least three vessels per and 7 capital ships with the only restriction being you need 2 cruisers to purchase a BB?
Then you allocate the vessels to each "command" of Warlord based on how many re-rolls they have total?
Then if you have any points left over, you can purchase the plethora of upgrades?
