I know in The Wars bulbmin was able to have multiple Heroes as part of his Bandit Group. Or, it may have been a Merc thing, but I'm not sure. So, I'd like to do something similar. Five Heroes out at a time, but overall 10. Each would have to be built up individually, and would be treated as Heroes, except they exist in a void of sorts, only five out at a time.
Basically the other five would exist in a void of sorts, completely separate from the normal world, so I don't have to explain power discrepancies which would result from characters having wildly different power levels. It'd be a trade off thing, of sorts, with a regular Base, and then a weird dimensional vortex thing that can be contacted to trade off Heroes in times of relative peace.
Just want to explain overall what I want to do. Still lots of time before I set this plan into motion, but want to get approval prior to it. I'm sure vidguy knows what I want my Bandit group to be based on.

So kind of like you have 10 but you only use 5 at a time in a war?

The Bonus for Bandit Groups is getting a sixth Hero that can be used in reserve, but 10? Sorry, but no.

In the wars? I thought it was 1 super hero and 4 champions. Are we talking the civilian bonus for having an empire?

He's a Merc, and they all take damage along with each other. It's like Fawful and his transformations into Super Fawful. He still brings damage with him, but he has different abilities.

Oh. So I could do this as a Merc, but not as a Bandit...
Hmm, I could possibly make this work. I'd have to do over 10,000 days worth of projects, but it'd be worth it.

You can't have more than 6 Heroes in a Bandit group at any time. Sorry, Merloo.

No silly, I was talking about for all the powers the group would have. So, mechanically they count as the same, but technically they are separate, or allowed to be? Not much point in having the 10 Dissidia villains if they are all supposed to be one entity. I can explain the shared damage, but short of saying they are all aspects of Chaos, I can't do all 10 as one group. I can even explain why only 1 is out at a time.
Part of the problem is that I need to be sure I can logically explain the restrictions from a story point. Mechanics aren't as important to me.

Sorry, Merloo, but if you want to do Dissidia, you'll have to just make do with 5 Villains.

I said I'd be a Merc, but I'd have to do over 10000 Days overall. Anyways, can I be a Merc, all those different forms, but they are different characters, with the damage transfering over, etc. Essentially different forms, mechanically, but as far as story goes, different?

You could do what bulbmin is doing and have the 10 Villains swap in and out of the same place, if that's what you mean.

But would they be, story-wise, each a different person, just not able to be there at the same time?

is this for the wars or SMKW 64 DS? if it's for the former, there's no rule against it, but if it's for the latter, there is.

Well, Final Fantasy Dissidia is not Mario, which creates problems with it being in SMKW.
Just kidding around, don't mean to sound sarcastic. Yeah, it's for The Wars.
