[Do you remove suppression before scoring?]

Hello there!

Removing suppression is a regular part of the end phase. Scoring is happening at either end of some round or end of the game. 

Do you remove suppression before Scoring? 

An example: 

A unit with the hostage (courage 2) has 4 suppression at the end of activation phase in round 6. Does he remove 1 suppression during end phase and scores, or not?

[Experimental Droids and Hostage]

Hello,

Does using a surge from the commander card allow you to make a move with a unit carrying the hostage at one speed higher. 

Thanks.

[Magna Guard: Prototype Assassin Droid Heavies]

In the Experimental Droids the point cost of heavy personel upgrades for the prototype assassin droids is not addressed. Is it the same as for their "regular" counterparts who got 2 health and courage?

Is it even the same heavies? This is not stated yet seems to be assumed. 

[Colour coded movement and range tools]

Hello,
Is it legal to add colour or other "marks" to a movement or range tool to "identify" ranges on it.
Asking as I have seen this done in competitive settings and it would be nice to know if it is allowed as it obviously can be highly beneficial. 

Thanks!

[Pre measuring with silhouette - Legal silhouette types]

Hello,

While you have previously stated that it is legal to pre-measure with silhouettes I did hear on the stream of the worlds final (2023) that it was not legal to use a silhouette of the A-A5 for this exact purpose. I did see while playing a range of silhouettes used in the earlier rounds.

Thus, I would like a clearification on which types of silhouettes are legal for pre-measuring.
1) Is it legal to use a "cone" silhouette of a trooper for pre-measuring? (If not, is it legal to use a flat silhouette mounted on a trooper sized base?)
2) Is it legal to use a "disc" silhouette of a speeder bike for pre-measuring?
3) Is it legal to use a silhouette of a vehicle for pre-measuring?

Any further clearifications you have to give on this topic would be very appreciated.

To clearify: By pre-measure Im talking about placing the silhouette at the end of the movement tool as an "end of movement placement". If that is at all legal?

Thanks!

[Melee Cohesion]

After an enemy unit engages one of my own in melee and I am to place my own miniautures into base contact. Do I have to:
1) Move my leader into base contact first? Or can I "withhold" the leader so that if there are no more room to get into base contact, the leader can be placed somewhere that maintains cohesion?.

2) Do I have to place my minis in base contact in such a way that it maximizes the number of minis that get into base contact, or can I place them "spaced out" in such a way that it uses more space and the miniatures that dont get into base contact can be placed somewhere in cohesion?

Thanks!
