When running Luke and leia they both at all times provide there suppression bubbles/courage to surrounding troops correct?
This came up in a match I had and I was almost positive it did but could not find it in the moment. Would really like this clarified for moving forward.
BRB Page 36:
"
After the “Rally” step of a unit’s activation, if the unit has a number of suppression tokens that is equal to or greater than double its courage value, that unit is panicked.
Panic Token
» If a unit is at range 1–3 of a friendly commander, it may use that commander’s courage value instead of its own when checking if it is panicked.
"
The rule states "a friendly commander". There is no additional restriction that it be a particular commander or the commander that was used to issue order tokens that turn. Luke and Leia would both provide bubbles in your example.
Also a follow up question; it was also argued that the neutral cards have to always be used from a designated single commander. Is that correct? I thought you could play them from either commander.
Edited by Matt3412BRB Page 30:
"
During the Command Phase, when it is a player’s turn to resolve their revealed command card, they nominate one of their commanders on the battlefield. That commander issues orders to the number and type of units presented on the revealed command card.
• A unit needs to fulfill the following criteria to be issued an order:
» The unit must be of a type presented on the player’s revealed command card.
» The unit must be at range 1–3 of the player’s nominated commander.
"
The operative phrase here is " they nominate one of their commanders on the battlefield. That commander issues orders...".
I know the rule book isn't great, but this one is also pretty clear. Even if using a non-commander specific card you have to nominate the issuing commander for that turn.
