The rulebook says I can summon UP TO two full squads (squad persisting of 3 creatures). So can I also summon only one squad.
Am i also allowed to summon only one creature of a squad, or even two?
Or do i have to summon atleast one full squad?
Thanks

Can I summon a figure from a summoned squad onto an elevated hex block if it is within the required 5 clear sight spaces? I'm currently Gideon and this would give me height advantage on Jace.

I believe that you can, not entirely sure but that's the way I play. There's nothing in the rules that says you can't. |

Yes. Summoning doesnt count elevations, only spaces.

I am not sure to understand this:
1) I can summon 1 item of each group?
2) I have always to summon the 3 items of the group??? Or I can summon 1 and other turn the other 2 items of the group??
3) I have to summon the complete 2 groups of 3 or I can summon 1 group of 3 and other turn the other group of 3???

If you decide to summon the Rhox Veterans, you must summon all 3 of the figures on the army card at the same time.
When you are summoning the Rhox, you may also choose to summon a second full army card. However you are not required to summon more than one full army card when you choose to summon.
There are a few instances where figures may be pulled back out of the graveyard. In those cases, you would have to use summon to get them back onto the board. In those cases only, you may summon the full number of figures that are available (you do not have to summon 3 if you only have one available to summon.)

Ok thanks.
What I wanted to ask is if I can summon only 1 or 2 of a squad for example of 3. Or uf I had always to summon complete squad.

You must summon all that are available - all 3 of a squad of 3.

Or uf I had always to summon complete squad. for summoning squads I've never seen a rule stating you must summon all except online like here and the cards themselves state that however many you choose is how to play them. When summoning a squad creature means only 1 and that's on all the squads I've used. |

When summoning a squad creature means only 1 and that's on all the squads I've used. Page 6 of Shadows over Innistrad rulebook, under ACTION 2: CHOOSE AN ARMY CARD has a specific section that explains Summoning with Your Planeswalker, namely, a piece that says "If you summon a squad, you must summon all members of the squad at once." I take this to mean "you must summon all members of that squad which are currently in your reserve," since there are instances where your full squad might not be in your reserve (  bounces the rest of the squad after killing one squad member.) So, you can summon up to two army cards per Planeswalker turn, and you must summon all reserve figures of the squad when you do choose to summon the squad. |

How can I put the squad creatures on the board? Never played before so I'm a bit confused.

Rulebook = Shadows over Innistrad Page 6, under ACTION 2 - Summoning with your Planeswalker: "If you choose your Planeswalker, before Action 3 of your Planeswalker's turn, your Planeswalker may summon up to two squads and/or heroes from your reserve to the battlefield. Summoned figures must be placed on empty spaces within five clear sight spaces of your Planeswalker. If you summon a squad, you must summon all members of the squad at once." Basically, choose to activate your Planeswalker for the turn at action 2, and before you move your Planeswalker, you may place figures from your RESERVE onto the battlefield. |
