# Emperor Nexus Secret Ally revival and bank-auction purchase
27 September 2026. **Prototyped**, with **Partial** rules coverage. These
separate Secret Ally alternatives connect in Basic and Advanced classic-faction
games with Nexus alone. Public module starts and publication remain gated.
Updated 14 October 2026. **Prototyped**, with **Partial** rules coverage.
Revival now uses the independent extra source through original native pending
continuations and supported Nexus module envelopes. Bank-auction purchase keeps
its distinct classic-only boundary. Public starts and publication remain gated.

The ordinary Advanced one-per-turn special-force revival cap remains in force.
For this roster, that means Fedaykin. The holder chooses among legal normal/elite
groups totaling exactly three; one printed counter cannot become two forces.
Fewer than three eligible counters remains a recorded source gap, not an implicit
up-to-three option. Recruits, Tleilaxu income/prevention, CHOAM suppression,
Homeworld deployment and other combined-module producers remain outside this
batch. A different player's ordinary Fremen ally grant does not block the holder.

The Advanced one-per-turn Fedaykin cap remains; native Ix Cyborgs use their
separate physical count cap. Select actual normal/elite groups totaling exactly
three. Fewer than three remains unavailable, not an implicit up-to grant.
Recruits changes the ordinary rate/limit, not this fixed extra count.

The engine consumes the physical Nexus and moves the exact force group in one
action. A private receipt records the original pools, mode and conserved delta;
independent event markers reject missing, duplicated or reordered history.
Historical pools are not compared with all later current pools: ordinary revivals,
Ghola and later battles can legitimately change them. The current card and event
must still authorize a fresh use. Saved views never expose that receipt or rival
hands/spice. The private offer creates no table-wide decision or forced pass.
The card is consumed at declaration, before original pending revival.
Version-two receipts track requested (no forces yet), returned or denied.
Native Tleilaxu Allow/Prevent, actual typed reserves, once-only free income,
Axlotl activity and original Homeworld handling settle the same physical group.
Prevention remains a visibly provisional composition; ordinary LaLaLa/free
rates do not reprice this independent extra source. No ordinary force/free or
native Emperor allied-extra usage grows, and no leader/payer/refund is invented.
Denial retains both spent cards and returns no forces/income/Tech. Original
Southern Hemisphere can place the actual returned Fedaykin; Tleilax's ordinary
Free Revival deployment is not extended to an independently free producer.
Strict old completed physical receipts stay readable without replay.
Historical snapshots do not require later pools/wallets to remain unchanged.
All four AI profiles use the same projected legal choices. The UI supplies a
physical elite selector only when it offers a real choice, shows unavailability
