  "description": "Condenses the party into exploration formations for cleaner dungeon delving. Members join a formation and are represented on the canvas by a single party token that moves at exploration speed. Movement automatically consumes dungeon turns (10 minutes), driving light-source burn, rest requirements, wandering-monster checks, spell-duration expiry, and ration tracking per the ACKS II dungeon delve sequence of play.",
