Rulings
- The monster you equip the Union Monster to must be appropriate, meaning the monster name written in the text of the Union Monster.
- The Union Monster is considered to be equipped 'by its effect' so any bonuses the Union Monster grants are granted if equipped with Formation Union. A Union Monster that is detached during the Battle Phase using Formation Union can attack during that Battle Phase.
- If the player who would control the Union Monster already has 5 monsters on the field, you cannot activate Formation Union and choose the second effect.
