Short and simple question: How are the MSC actually used? I know there purpose (+1D6 to spawning), but how do they get onto the board?

When I play with them they never go on the board (if I remember to bring the models . I normally have a pile of them (or a dice with the number of them I should have facing up). When I use them the number of spores used get moved from the ready pile to the dead synpase/indepdat pile.
Now I'm going to ask a follow on question that I just thought of.
when do you declare when you are using spores?
1) When you declare the action (I'm going to marshall and deploy 2 mycetic spores)
2) Before you spawn. (Right I'm spawning I'll use 2 mycetic spores)
3) As you spawn. (Right I've only rolled a 1, I'll use another spore... Oh look another 1. Right one more spore...Er how come this one has come up -1?)

Eric: They're basically just counters. I've asked repeatedly to have the references to various kinds of models removed because it's confusing and there is a constant stream of people asking the exact question you asked.
Rag: We've always used #2, i.e. after the activation roll, but before spawning dice are rolled.

Well I'm playing like the rest of you. So either we are all right or all wrong.

Actually this question was asked of JJ long ago when the v1.0 list came out, #2 is the correct answer.
Well it was back then at least
