The Severan Dominate has an organisation of 'Ducal Legates' who fill a similar role of morale officer but tend to hide their power over the life and death of those in their care behind an act of caring for the community they look after, because that is what they are taught in Duke Severus's version of the Schola Progenium. All the actual Commissars were executed behind the scenes because they refused to convert to the Duke's point of view.

Ah. Sounds a lot another aspect of the same Soviet commissariat being highlighted. That's actually really cool, focusing more on the civilian political overseer/monitor aspect than battlefield command. Someone at FFG should get a pat on the back for sticking to the same influences, just highlighting and uplifting different aspects.

Or at least that's what I gathered from your description. Thanks.

Sure.
