Hi all

I've seen a few people mention "squad rules" or "squadron rules" on the forums, but I have no idea what these are and I can't find where they're from. Can anyone point me to the right source book?

Thanks.

Squad rules can be found in the AoR GM kit, and squadron guidelines are in the EotE core rules- a sidebar, I think. If I weren't AFB I could be more specific. Sorry.

All in the Age of Rebellion GM kit. Basic overview is that a group of minions can "attach" to an important character (PC or Nemesis). The minions give up their initiative slot and no longer act in the encounter. There are different formations that give the character certain advantages. But most importantly when an attack would hit the character they can choose for a single minion to be removed from the encounter instead. No wounds are worked out, just remove the minion.

They are a great way to spice up combat, and can give a single character a lot more longevity in a large combat.

Thanks!
