Battle Line
Can you claim a flag with a Phalanx of 8s if the opponent could still complete a Phalanx of 10s or a Wedge?
The Flags section requires that the opponent cannot beat the formation, and the Formations section ranks a Wedge above a Phalanx.

No. A claim needs proof, from the cards on the table, that the opponent cannot beat your formation. A Phalanx of 10s beats a Phalanx of 8s on total, and any Wedge beats any Phalanx, so while either is still possible you must wait.
