Possibly a bit pricey, though I am aware of how much more dice with non standard numbers can be, but I know the completionist in me would make me pick up a set of brythoniaid but only if the symbol is the 9.

I believe you can as you can shoot and use sight spells.

With regards to range no you won’t be in focus range automatically. The distance is calculated each time you target the circling unit to be their flight move plus 2D10 from the unit targeting them.
