Building your Squad
One of Gundam Assemble’s most exciting prospects is the ability to mix and match units from across the franchise to create the teams you’ve always dreamed of. The number of units you’ll need to include in your squad is dictated by your chosen scenario. Most scenarios require squads of either three or five units, and some scenarios will also include a Carrier.
Once you’ve identified how many units you need, squad building is simple. Select any units of your choice. There is only one restriction: you cannot include multiple copies of a unit with the exact same unit card number in your squad unless those units are Mass Produced. Many units will benefit from being paired with their typical comrades—Zeon forces favor playing with other Zeon, for example—but there is no inherent rule preventing any combination unless specified by your chosen scenario.
Multiple Copies of Mass Produced Units
Mass Produced units allow players to include multiple copies of the same unit within their squad. When players choose to use multiple copies of a Mass Produced unit, though, they must take adequate steps to ensure that each unit—and its corresponding Timeline token—are easily distinguishable and relatable to their corresponding unit card. Players can use a variety of methods to distinguish their units and Timeline tokens, whether that be through paint color schemes, unique additions to model bases, or other methods, but it must be clear which Timeline token is associated with each unit and each unit must be distinguishable from other units of the same unit card number.
