Forgive me if this is a dumb question, but I'm not clear on how the Defender's Base Edge is selected.
We know which human being is the Defender, because he or she scored the lowest in a die roll augmented by the Aggression Factor.
It sounds like the human being selected as Defender then notionally divides up the playing surface into four quadrants, based upon where the Defender happens to be sitting before a blank playing surface.
The four quadrants are numbered from the Defender human being's left front, left back, right back, then right front.
So, it sounds like we know, at the beginning, which edge is the Defender's Base Edge. That's what I gather from p. 15, figure 1a.
Defender's Base Edge will always be the the bottom of quadrants 1 & 4.
But p. 8, "Deployment," suggests that the Invader is privileged to choose its base edge, subject to some limitations.
Once the Invader has chosen its Base Edge, then the Defender's Base Edge is automatically the opposite edge.
So - is it possible that the Defender's Base Edge might end up to be not the bottom of quadrants 1 & 4?
