All you have to do is put them in a mixed formation or a formation consisting almost entirely of them and it d... |

| QUOTEIf I did that, then the spawning could be same as it was pre 8.4. The complaint about it was that it involved rolling dices twice (which incidentally should bother people in 8.4 as well ... oddly though it doesn't ).
