Some of the these are specific to certain Astro scenarios (I think they are from Astro scenarios Confused

) but we use them in a lot of the regular scenarios:
- we use the Dawn rule in which you roll each turn to see if the sun comes up (2+ on turn 2, 3+ on turn 3 etc.). For Dusk we reverse the effect- the sun goes down on a roll of 1 on turn 2, 1-2 on turn 3, 1-3 on turn 4, etc.
- in Escalation games we borrowed Deployment from an Astro scenario which required you to deploy mandatory choices (1 HQ and 2 Troops).
- we start rolling for Reserves on turn 1 on a 5+ (we don't always use this reserves rule, but frequently)
