What it does
Banding (Any creatures with banding, and up to one without, can attack in a band. Bands are blocked as a group. If any creatures with banding you control are blocking or being blocked by a creature, you divide that creature's combat damage, not its controller, among any of the creatures it's being blocked by or is blocking.)
Cumulative upkeep 1 generic mana (At the beginning of your upkeep, put an age counter on this permanent, then sacrifice it unless you pay its upkeep cost for each age counter on it.)

Where it came from
Volunteer Reserves was originally printed in the 2000 Mercadian Masques expansion for Magic: The Gathering. It was designed as part of a cycle of cards focused on the rebel mechanic, reflecting the set's narrative of a fractured society on the plane of Mercadia. The design emphasizes the game's focus on creature utility and resource management, characteristic of the strategic complexity favored by Wizards of the Coast during the late 1990s.
The card was later included in 'The List', a rotating selection of legacy cards curated by Wizards of the Coast for inclusion in Set Boosters. This program was introduced to bring iconic or mechanically distinct cards from the game's deep history back into active circulation for modern players. The inclusion of Volunteer Reserves in this collection serves to bridge the gap between historical set themes and contemporary gameplay environments, offering players a glimpse into the mechanics of the early 2000s.
