Re: Exceeding 72 x 72 - Penalty?

That was the point of the question - you can legally exceed 72 x 72 this year, but only in the home zone. But if you deploy before you get there, or you leave the home zone, or you get pushed out of the home zone, what is the penalty? It doesn't say. If it's a DQ, that's pretty major.
