For the solo bot, does a Blitz token plus its follow-up unit count as one placement when checking whether it can close and win?

Question

Accepted Answer

The designers' own reading is that it can. A Blitz unit with its follow-up counts as one placement, so the bot may include Blitz options. The bot text says only single placement, so the strict reading may not count it. The designer does not recommend the wider reading.
