=== Squads ===
Creatures can choose to team together in squads of 4 or more. This gives them a +1 bonus to Will, and they may share the results of a single save rolled by the creature with the highest Will, but a squad being reduced to three-quarters its original size is Frightening 5 for the whole squad, and being reduced to one-quarter its original size is Frightening 9.
Squad members should stay together, such that all of them are connected to the majority of the squad by links of other members, no more than 10 meters apart. If a group of squad members finds themselves separated from the majority of the squad, they find it Frightening 3 each round for 3 rounds, after which time, if they haven't rejoined the majority, they split into a separate squad.

At the end of each of the character’s turns, they may roll a Will save again to stop their Fear Response, with the same Frightening value. Frightening things are [ Fear ] effects.
