During deployment, before Scouts are placed, place a tunnel marker anywhere on the battlefield. The unit will
then deploy using the Ambushers special rule. When the unit emerges, roll a scatter dice and an artillery dice.
If you roll a hit on the scatter dice, the marker stays in place; if you roll an arrow, move the marker the number
