Connect bare Basic native Ecaz coalitions

Admit fresh public Basic Ecaz starts with selected native E1/E2 families while retaining roster, inventory, seat and optional-profile guards. Keep actual coalition battle assertions. Include allied marker-only and mixed Richese presence, zero and capped materialization after both seals, and owner-specific casualties. Extend the explicitly provisional additive mixed-marker interpretation to Basic without new arithmetic or FAQ ruling.

Use the current physical force pool for battle-wheel half steps so Ecaz can commit Ixian Suboids; cancellation restores Ecaz-only whole steps. Preserve Basic free support, zero funding/income, native Ix substitution, lead-owned cards and original Collection.

Verify related Basic/Advanced rules, types/lint/build, nine actual-control/rendered-table programmes after genuine public Basic setup, explicit controlled board/budget/card staging and four existing profiles with legal lead/plan/native-substitution proposals. Full modes, wider optional configurations, comprehensive assurance and deployed acceptance remain unfinished. No strategic calibration, saved-room operation, reset, restart or deployment.
