"Summon all copies of this unit from your deck" - possible to summon more than one?

+
There are several bronze cards which have the "Summon all copies of this unit from your deck" ability:
  • Crow Messenger
  • Drummon Shieldmaiden
  • Brokilon Sentinel
  • Impera Brigade
  • Hunting Pack
  • Casino Bouncers
  • Sewer Raiders
  • Blue Stripes Commando
  • Dun Banner
What methods are there for these cards to summon more than one copy from the deck? I only know about the Northern Realms method, using Blue Stripes Scout to spawn extra copies of Blue Stripes Commando or Dun Banner in the deck.

Also, the following three bronze cards have the same ability, but they all say "Summon a copy of this unit from your deck" - i.e. just one copy:
  • Wild Hunt Rider
  • Foglet
  • Mahakam Volunteers
Why do these have different wording for their summon ability?

The wording refers to conditions. Foglet for example is a deathwish and thus only triggers with its death or its deathwish being activated by another card. Mahakam Volunteers needs another dwarf on the row to trigger.

The max number of a specific unit in a starting deck is 2 (bronze only.) if you create a 3rd copy using a create card or leader ability you can summon more than 1 from your deck. See percision strike ability for an easy example.

Yep, I already understand that part - I know from using them that all of the cards I listed have a specific condition to trigger the "summon all copies" or "summon a copy" ability.

Yep, OK, I understand that creating a 3rd copy is how to summon more than one.

Ah yes, I'd totally forgotten that Precision Strike can summon more than one Brokilon Sentinel from the deck - so thanks for reminding me about that method. (y)

So, other than the NR Blue Stripes Scout + Blue Stripes Commandos / Dun Banners combination, and the ST Precision Strike + two Brokilon Sentinels combination - what methods are there to summon more than one of these cards from the deck:
  • Crow Messenger?
  • Drummon Shieldmaiden?
  • Impera Brigade?
  • Hunting Pack?
  • Casino Bouncers?
  • Sewer Raiders?
And if it's not possible with those cards, then surely the description on them should say "Summon a copy of this unit from your deck" - the same as Wild Hunt Rider, Foglet and Mahakam Volunteers?
 
You can create an Impera Brigade with Artorius Vigo.

Shieldmaiden can be created by Cerys.

And in general you could do a combo with Operator and some form of ressurction.
Also, there are always the runestones for RNG.
 
There is no difference in the abilities, these are just inconsistencies in wording/small mistakes.
ST used to be able to make a Mahakam Volunteers copy with Novigradian Justice even though they said "Summon a copy", before Justice was changed.

As for making copies, only NR, NG and SK can currently really play several copies.
NG can use Artorius Vigo for Impera Brigade and Hunting Pack.
SK can make an additional copy of Drummon Shieldmaiden and with Operator (neutral card) copy Crow Messenger and make use of its graveyard ability.

Besides that you could summon multiple copies in some seasonal modes.

Of course, I totally forgot about Cerys! And runestones - I never thought about that! Thanks! (y)

I can't think how Operator could get more than one unit out of the Deck though.... I've only seen him used to get more than one copy out of the Graveyard:

Have operator and the card you want to play a triple of in hand. Summon a copy of that card.
Next round mulligan the card in your hand back into your deck.
Use Necromany on the card which should be now in your graveyard.

As long as I haven't overlooked anything.

Thanks! I didn't know about the Artorius method for NG.

That's neat! I like making funny decks, so I might give this a try.
