+## 29 September 2026 — bounded Fremen Nexus Betrayal movement alternative
+
+An unallied holder may spend the one physical Fremen Nexus card before Fremen
+move during Shipment and Movement in classic-only Nexus games. The native
+two-territory advantage stays suppressed through that turn; ordinary movement,
+city ornithopters and other independent movement remain available. The
+server-bound event and saved receipt reject duplicate or malformed plays.
+The holder-only control and all four AI profiles share the same private offer,
+with bot priority before Fremen's first move. Basic/Advanced real second-turn
+Nexus draws, JSON continuation, expiry, corrupted receipt rejection and a
+concurrent authenticated SQLite CAS/reconnect check pass seven focused cases.
+The actual React control rendered an owner button and no rival control in a
+read-only static preview; no room was written. Typecheck, lint, the app build,
+5,735/5,735 offline tests and 54/54 local HTTP integration cases passed.
+Independent read-only review found no actionable issue in bounded timing,
+privacy, custody, receipt or movement.
+The card's separate worm-riding suppression remains
+unimplemented, and combined modules/public Nexus starts remain gated. See
+[Fremen Nexus rules](NEXUS_FREMEN_RULES.md#bounded-betrayal-movement-range).

+## 29 September 2026 — bounded Ambassador/Terror storm-order continuation
+
+An original entry into a shared Ecaz Ambassador and Moritani Terror stronghold
+is now committed once, then two distinct optional owner reactions are saved
+in current storm order. Ecaz and Moritani can each decline or use a supported
+face/effect; the second owner still receives the original entrant, territory,
+token entitlement and turn after JSON restoration. The signed receipt remains
+server-only, the public notice shows current/next faction without hidden
+Terror identity, and physical shipment spice, counters and movement allowance
+never replay on continuation. This is a provisional conservative table
+priority chosen after a targeted source review found no publisher ruling,
+not a certified simultaneous-effects rule.
+
+The first focused engine/quote/in-memory SQLite group passed 41 cases across
+three files. A direct non-test Basic game smoke put Moritani before Ecaz:
+the entrant shipped two forces for two spice once, Moritani revealed Robbery
+and collected nine of the remaining eighteen, then Ecaz's Emperor Ambassador
+collected five bank spice. JSON reloads between responses preserved owner
+order and the original two forces; rival views kept Robbery's face hidden
+before revelation. BG fighter Intrusion, Fremen/Guild Ambassador child
+arrivals, Atomics, optional modules and public expansion starts remain
+separate unfinished work. The table order and its limits are in
+[the source-bound policy](MORITANI_ENTRY_TIMING.md#selected-bounded-overlap-order--29-september-2026).
+
+Follow-up regression coverage now exercises Basic/Advanced Fremen worm rides
+through both saved arrival stages in SQLite, Robbery hand overflow, Sabotage
+discard/gift, and a special-Karama summon whose Nexus precedes the queued
+ride. The bot owner-view quote accepts a supported ordinary overlap. The
+focused overlap/guide suite passed 30 cases. The obsolete prose-matching
+reference test was removed rather than re-pinned; full typecheck, lint, the
+app build and 5,735/5,735 offline tests now pass with the separate Fremen
+Nexus movement alternative integrated. This local coverage does not certify
+an expansion start or deployment.

 Consequently, the exact relationship between paying the shipment, transferring forces, opening Terror and completing other arrival reactions remains an implementation policy requiring an explicit qualification.

+## Selected bounded overlap order — 29 September 2026
+
+No targeted publisher/designer clarification establishes which of Ecaz's Ambassador and Moritani's Terror acts first when both were eligible on one entry. Under the user's standing instruction to use the recommended option rather than reopen a missing ruling, this table chooses **the current storm order `g.order` of those two owners** in Basic/Advanced classic plus Ecaz/Moritani development games. This is a provisional implementation interpretation, **not** a GF9 simultaneous-effects ruling.
+
+Both optional trigger opportunities belong to the **same already committed entry**. Snapshot the original entrant, token identities, physical arrival amount and turn; finish the first owner's choice and its allowable continuations before offering the second. Revalidate the second effect's physical requirements without replaying the original shipment payment, movement or force transfer. Owner-private Terror identity remains concealed until revealed. If the first reaction changes an alliance, the other owner keeps the trigger earned at the original entry; it does not gain a new trigger from a later action.
+
+This bounded path excludes competing BG fighter Intrusion, Guild income/advisor and CHOAM prevention windows, Homeworlds, Nexus, Discoveries, Leader Skills and the still-unfinished Atomics effect. Fremen relocation or Guild free-shipment Ambassador effects can create nested arrivals before the second owner; they remain declineable but cannot be activated in this overlap until their child continuation is integrated. These guards are development boundaries, not physical-game prohibitions.

It does not specify how a later alliance change affects either former or new allies. Both a continuing current-ally modifier and a detonation-time recipient remain interpretations.

+## Bounded Betrayal: movement range
+
+An unallied non-Fremen holder of the physical Fremen Nexus card may spend it
+during Shipment and Movement **before Fremen move** to suppress their native
+two-territory movement advantage for the rest of that turn. This bounded path
+uses a clean action boundary in classic-only tables with no other optional
+modules. It does not suppress independent city ornithopters, Planetologist,
+movement cards or the ordinary one-territory move. A move-specific Karama
+interruption remains separate; no extra Karama response to the Nexus card is
+invented.
+
+The owner-only offer binds the holder, seated Fremen target and turn. The
+physical card enters the Nexus discard once; a saved receipt and player turn
+marker preserve suppression through JSON/SQLite recovery and reject replay or
+malformed ownership. The public movement view shows the restriction without
+revealing who held the card before play. All four AI profiles can spend the
+card before an active Fremen bot moves; the owner control labels this
+alternative and keeps the printed worm-riding suppression alternative visibly
+unavailable. The latter is **not** covered by this prototype. This does not
+open the complete Nexus module or public expansion starts.
