Replace lifetime first-death caps with the selected provisional composition: first returns remain immediate, while later native leaders and KH must satisfy their existing ordinary death/cohort conditions. Extract one phase/slot/price-independent cohort quote for ordinary Revival and the independent Ambassador. Preserve ordinary timing, payment, prevention, native early service and one-leader controls.
Snapshot an opened cohort before a free return makes a leader alive, preserving remaining ordinary returns. Keep Ecaz identity tracking and the shared Duke permission separate. KH retains activation/loss history and five native discs; update its marker above the actual opened owner cycle and old marker. Independent grants retain ordinary allowance and income policies. Explain eligibility in persistent controls and source-labelled reference.
Verify related rules/controls, types/lint/build, controlled native/copied free-return-to-next-ordinary-Revival programmes layered on original public Basic paid-entry sources, controlled Advanced KH actual entry/return, income allow/cancel and twelve minimal legal policy continuations. Assigned repeat/cohort facts are explicitly controlled, not claimed original battle histories. Full modes, wider custody/module combinations, comprehensive assurance and deployed acceptance remain unfinished. No strategic calibration, saved-room operation, reset, restart or deployment.
Positive free force/leader returns share the existing beneficiary/turn free-income ledger under the explicit provisional source composition. Actual Ghola remains separately rewarded. Decline earns nothing. Bind a distinct revival-income response to the completed physical return and original Ambassador; allow/cancel finishes once and cancellation preserves the return and spent entitlement.
Add persistent preselection and income guidance. Admit the bare Basic Ecaz+Ix native Tleilaxu composition through existing coalition/Face Dance mechanics, retaining unsupported faction/module guards and existing start/battle assertions.
Verify focused tests, types/lint/build, four original public Basic native/copy allow/cancel programmes, actual control rendering and eight existing legal policies. Exact frozen evidence and boundaries are in docs/TLEILAXU_AMBASSADOR_RULES.md. Full rules/modes, wider combinations, assurance and deployed acceptance remain unfinished. No strategic calibration, saved-room operation, reset, restart or deployment.
The original own-leader grant omitted the shared Duke because it searched only native rosters and KH. Offer Duke only to Ecaz using canonical dead-disc identity/custody validation and the existing independent permission. Preserve ordinary first-death/KH limits and unsupported source envelopes. Native Tleilaxu and Bene Gesserit copied effects share the choice.
Return the actual shared disc alive and set aside, preserve strength and death history, clear obsolete use/concealment and record any satisfied native cohort opening before clearing death. Spend no spice, Ghola or ordinary leader allowance; add no native disc or skill. Finish the same committed Ambassador and retain original entrant movement. Persistent guidance explains that a separate legal acquisition is still needed.
Source-specific tests, genuine public Basic acquisition/death/arrival programmes, actual GameTable/entry rendering and four existing minimal profiles verify the consumer. Controlled Advanced/copy/repeated/cohort/ownership/event probes remain separate. Exact frozen checks and limits are in docs/TLEILAXU_AMBASSADOR_RULES.md.
This composes the printed grant with the selected set-aside/independent Duke policy; it does not settle generic ordinary repeat/income policy, open a module, certify full modes or claim browser/deployed/final assurance. No strategic AI refinement or saved-room/database/reset/restart/deployment operation.
The last unimplemented Ambassador effect is now reachable. A placed Tleilaxu
token gives its beneficiary — the Ecaz owner or its ally — a private
ecazAmbassador decision at the new revival stage: one to four physical counters
return from the Tanks to reserves at zero cost, quoted by the existing
game/tleilaxu-ambassador-forces.ts, which also enforces the shared
Fedaykin/Sardaukar one-per-turn counter and keeps Ixian cyborgs uncapped.
The player view projects the maximum, Tanks and elite inventory and current
elite usage to the beneficiary only; the entry control offers a per-count
button and an explicit "Return no forces" decline; all four AI profiles choose
a legal return from the decision owner's own view or decline when the Tanks are
empty. Player-facing coverage text now lists Tleilaxu.
Kept gated exactly as recorded: the printed leader alternative, ordinary
force/free/leader allowance accounting around this independent grant,
dead-twice eligibility, and Tleilaxu free-income repeat scope. No ordinary
revival allowance, price, phase or income path changes.
Evidence: tests/tleilaxu-ambassador-engine.test.ts drives a genuine arrival into
a placed token and asserts the beneficiary-only projection, the typed return
with unchanged spice, the shared elite limit, malformed/over-maximum rejection
with immutability, the ordinary-only return, the decline path and the rendered
control. The four-profile ecaz-entry-bots loop now covers tleilaxu, and the
former unsupported-effect and copy-list pins were updated to the supported
behaviour rather than re-pinned. Offline suite 7,797/7,797 with typecheck and
lint clean. No game, seat, saved state or deployment changes.
Connect typed Homeworld custody, transport, battle, income, revival and Caladan reinforcement flows with private multiplayer recovery and controls. Preserve the optimized test workflow and keep unfinished rules modes gated. Verified with 3682 offline tests, typecheck, lint, production build and 40 HTTP tests; existing saved games remain unchanged.
