Having a rule for each spell that changes every day is just to complicated. Imagine, as there are many squadrons all would have to use the same rule, or else they could be confused with bretons, and as such the rule changing would have to follow a pattern so all the squadrons know what rule is for the next day. Anyway because this invasion would be very long they would have to write it down somewhere or else they wouldn't know what rule to use in like 4 month's time. Where im going with this is if the squadron commander keeps a list of rule patterns to follow and his squadron is killed and he doesn't have time to destroy the list, then the bretons get the list therefore making the whole rule thing useless.

Last time i checked runes couldn't be placed under anything, as such there couldn't be leaves on top of them, therefore they would be easy to see as they glow. If they see it they could just throw something at it to activate it(i personaly use arrows to explode the runes in Skyrim). Offcourse this would give away they're position so if possible they would just go around the rune.

Are there any underwater traps in the Elder Scrolls Universe? So as I just said, no going to Black Marsh OR morrowind.

I don't think it's that hard to remember some rules for casting spells. And remember wht I said: they can meet up in a pre-planned location every night. Originally, I thought up of the exact same problem as you, and decided that the only way to solve that is to disscuss what the next pattern is the night before. Well, I guess its my fault to put that before the spell thing :P. And they're not gonna run out of codes either; if they do, they can just use the code they used a looooooong time ago, so that the Bretons won't suspect.

I don't think leaves would set off runes, would they? Cuz I know a tankard wont (it rolled towards it, in fact. it could've saved my life). You can put other traps too u know.
