Compose independent cards with Discovery and optional Nexus

Connect original selected-deck Discovery setup, optional Nexus/World/Skills/phase modules and physical card consumers through shared public capabilities. Retain Cunning revealed-location arrival, Sandtrout suppression, paid nested R/Harass and actual later Recruits revival. Preserve native trained-capture and unrelated-preview boundaries.

Validation: frozen 15-file118/118, types/lint/build and six finite original-action/rendered-control programmes; four minimal legal policies. External smoke corrections changed no application source. Existing persistent notices also rechecked23/23. Full combinations, assurance and deployed acceptance remain open; no saved-game, restart or deployment operation.

 | Reinforcements / classic Homeworlds | Under standing choose-recommended, seal exact native normal-first sources for the existing three-reserve/all-outcome fee. Ambiguous omission rejects; a unique source may derive. Native reserves on an own World are also its army, so that fee cannot fund the same physical dial/casualties; an off-World fee leaves the pool. Keep original pre-fee traits/printed face, including explosion loss choices across a threshold, then typed Tanks, Harass return and original casualties. This is explicit provisional physical-pool composition, not a new FAQ or own-World ban. Source-aware full/complying plan reviews and named independent-card conditions use canonical names and actual combat locations. Other rosters/overlays/public starts remain gated. | [Native sources and exact proof](REINFORCEMENTS_RUNTIME.md#classic-homeworld-reserve-fees--16-october-2026) |
 | Reinforcements / clean selected Ix and CHOAM | Admit original independent cards with clean selected native/base Basic/Advanced rosters and no optional modules/overlays. Reuse existing provisional normal-first/all-outcome payment, original No-Field materialization before the fee, then successful Harass return; physical Stone ignores +2. Native cyborg substitution uses its own casualty origins, not a duplicate reserve fee. This closes admission consistency, not a new numerical ruling or public expansion gate. | [Profile and bounded proof](REINFORCEMENTS_RUNTIME.md#clean-selected-ixchoam-families--16-october-2026) |
 | Independent Treachery / all14 Skills | Printed variant independence composes registered actual selected-family all14 Basic/Advanced2–6, including mixed E3/E1/E2, unused decks, original Worlds and Tech3+/Advanced Strongholds2+. No Nexus/exact E3 family/card dependency is invented. Original36/38/50, separate cache and native setup/custody remain. Bare mixed E3 World/phase cards, original Nexus/Discovery/Semuta, Advanced role, shared Duke and effect-specific limits stay separate. Fees/H/committed-only Suk, own-World bans and separate Banker/Tech remain.

+| Independent Treachery / Discovery / optional Nexus | Existing printed E3 variant independence admits fresh registered classic/selected0–3-family independent36/38/50 plus Discovery7/8, optionally Nexus12/World/all14/phase. Native setup and physical card rules remain original; transient encounters do not remove unrelated capabilities. Actual Cunning nested arrival, Sandtrout suppression, paid R/Harass and earned Recruits have bounded programmes. No new numerical/timing ruling; trained actual-E3/Harkonnen, unrelated previews, full modes and broader interactions remain guarded. | [Source-bound proof and limits](NEXUS_CARD_RULES.md#independent-cards-with-discovery--18-october-2026) |
 | Classic independent Treachery / Nexus | Printed independent-variant authority composes fresh classic2–6 Basic/Advanced independent36/Nexus12, optionally all14, through one public configuration predicate and original setup. Recruits changes ordinary rates/total7, not fixed Tleilaxu group price/free classification. Cunning keeps temporary ordinary counters, separate Reinforcements reserve fees, actual Harass returns and original cancellation. No new numeric rule or played-save conversion. Native selected families, World/phase/Discovery/Semuta, reaction-preview and other effect-specific bounds remain separate; inherited provisional timings are not promoted to publisher rulings. | [Source and exact native proof](NEXUS_CARD_RULES.md#classic-independent-treachery-composition--18-october-2026) |
 | Classic independent native Nexus reactions | Fresh independent36/Nexus12 optional14 initializes the existing Ixian purchase and actual Harkonnen declared-Traitor effect stamps; played games remain unchanged. Public selection binds canonical faces and the original census, with a new independent marker only where selected. Under standing choose-recommended authority, inherit the existing bounded native-counter-first/neutral acknowledgement and replacement-before-Harkonnen-bonus conventions, visibly provisional, not new publisher or universal rulings. Personal/allied source, real Mentat replacement and original paid/card/force mechanics remain. Other native/module/reaction envelopes stay separate. | [Current source and actual controls](NEXUS_CARD_RULES.md#classic-selected-card-reactions--18-october-2026) |
 | Classic Nexus core / funded card shipments | Original Nexus independence admits fresh classic2–6 Basic/Advanced base33 or selected independent36, optionally all14, without a three-card dependency. Initialize actual Guild/Harkonnen/Ixian reaction states only at fresh setup. Original signed Cunning reserve/cross/return and Richese one-counter grants retain native counters, funding and physical continuation through the same Guild fee gate. One Guild singleton cannot simultaneously fund Cunning and rival Use; actual wrong-face Pass remains neutral. Actual third-party Bureaucrat sees the real recipient and printed payer exclusions. No new numerical/universal ruling, played reflag or wider module opening; inherited timing stays provisional. | [Current source and exact proof](NEXUS_CARD_RULES.md#classic-nexus-core-and-funded-card-shipments--18-october-2026) |
