Can Shaffer's Last Chancers be made in the AB IG list?

Hi. My son wants to play the IG, and especially likes the characters of Shaffer's Last Chancers.

But I can't seem to adapt the file to the squad; is there a way to do this?

Thanks, :lol:

There might have been rules once upon a time. I think the closest you can get is to get creative with a platoon command squad. I haven't read the books, but I suppose if you fire up the Google-ometer you might someone's interpretation.

Thanks! I had seen rules for them as special characters like Yarrick in an earlier IG codex (c.1999,IIRC), and was hoping that would work in AB as well.

But a platoon command squad works just as well. :)

THanks again,

I believe that if you use an older iteration of the files, perhaps one that was made before the 5E IG codex was released - they may have been there as special characters. I'm not sure if our archive goes back that far in the downloads section and I'm also not sure what the outcome would be in attempting to use a file that old with AB3.3.
