Notes:

Having your own copy of the BMM is useful, but there will be at least 1 copy available at the table. Know your tech. This is intended to be a fast paced game, so let’s try to keep the lookups to a minimum.

Proxies: Allowed, but must be similar to the unit intended, and clearly stated when deployed/asked. IE: Spider can proxy a Venom, but a locust can’t proxy an Atlas.
