Honestly, they probably were covered implicitly, but I'm the kind of guy who loves theory crafting these possibilities. The first point actually came about because I was talking to a friend and he raised it. I played a lot of WS and there's quite a few cards there that prevent opponents characters untapping at the start of the opponents next turn. As far as I know there are no such cards in FE0. Yet. The question about colour restrictions on effect summons is interesting. My guess would be that since they don't use up the bonds, you could theoretically do the deployment with no face up bonds. This would imply that colour is irrelevant.

I re-read that page, and here's what I found 1. Covered by phase order 2. There is indeed a note in the action phase covering this. Either I missed it the first time or I read an older version of the page 3. Again, there is a note there which I missed on my first read through for whatever reason 4. My confusion here was with the rule. The page states that you cannot deploy a unit if you already have a unit of the same name. My question (in essence) was whether Elice's skill counted as a deployment (since it doesn't happen during deployment phase). And if the rule is actually that you cannot control two units with the same name. Otherwise, if Elice's skill is not a deployment, and the rule is against deploying units of the same name, there is theoretically nothing to prevent her from bringing back a same-named unit. What might be the real issue is the Elice card translation on the wiki. The translation says to place the revived character on the battlefield (not strictly a deployment), but the japanese uses 出撃, which I think is the word for deployment. If so, then there would be no issue, and since the revival counts as a deployment, it would mean that it would trigger skills that happen on deployments (such as TD 4/3 Marth's moving skill) Thanks

So I was playing around a bit and came up with a few questions. Hopefully someone here can answer them 1. Can you promote / level up a tapped unit? If so, does it remain tapped? 2. If I have 4 bond cards and have already deployed 4 cost worth of units, can I flip the 'used' bonds for effects? 3. For cards like Tiki, who are non-promotable, can I still 'level-up' by placing a higher cost Tiki on a lower cost one (forgoing the promotion draw bonus)? 4. Can Elice's Aum Staff target a character that cannot otherwise be on the battlefield? For example, if I have a Marth on the battlefield, can I use Aum Staff to get another one? Answers would be greatly appreciated. EDIT: Realised after re-reading the rules that situation 1 cant happen because deployment is before action phase.
