Align
Well, the reason I don't have a timing point for it is that it requires an exact setup on your field, which can be easily undone by both you and your opponent. You can move your units around for better columns or alternate Aligns, and your opponent can retire (by attacks or effects), lock, and even delete your units. All of which can break an aligned ability, as my wording idea requires both the units to be face up, and for the aligned unit to be a part of the setup.
 * Wording- Align(Field Setup)(If there are face up cards in the specified circles, including this unit, this unit becomes aligned.)
 * This wording allows the inclusion of the VC, as it takes deleted vanguards into account. I mainly want the VC included so I can also make small 2 circle alignments between the Vanguard and one rear-guard.
 * This wording also makes it more difficult to align units, as now, while the alignment can be permanent, it requires an aligned unit to be a part of the formation it needs to become aligned. Which, as I stated above, has multiple ways of being broken (and not in the OP sense).

Playstyle
Yes, you play with the movement playstyle. Instead of Align requiring you to move or call units in order to align, it plays more of a supportive role, while the movement playstyle helps with achieving multiple aligns in a single turn, making better columns, or allowing multiple attacks similar to Aqua Force (but usually requiring an open RC for movement). So, I don't think the movement playstyle is needed for align to be active, given how easily aligns can be destroyed, and how they require specific field setups in the first place. Thank you for the suggestion though. It's very nice, and I can see where you're coming from with it. I just feel that requiring both a specific field setup and a call/movement to make align active might be a bit much.

So, what are your thoughts about my wording idea, and how align works? Is it at least semi-fair, and could it work? (Note: I can see where this would be OP if I give units, especially the Vanguard, a high [Power] increase while aligned, but I don't plan on doing that. Small amounts, such as [Power]+2000, maybe, but nothing like [Power]+10000 for being aligned during the opponent's turn. If I do something like that, I'll fairly restrict it to your turn only. Otherwise, I don't think this wording would be OP, but I like to get your opinion still.)
