I'm asking because I'm not sure if Leia can do her Take Cover 2 action every turn or if she can only do it when she has suppression tokens.

Also, I'm sure this has been asked 100 times, but Inspire 2, that's just 2 suppression tokens total, but 2 for each unit correct?

Take cover can be done as an action, no suppression required

Inspire 2 as I read it means 2 suppression in total, not 2 per unit

Take Cover makes no reference to Leia herself having suppression. Where did that even come from? It doesn't mention suppression at all.

Inspire was already correctly answered by oubobcat - it says "up to 2 suppression tokens from other friendly units," not "up to 2 suppression tokens from each friendly unit."

To answer the *third* question posed by your title, yes, you always have a Rally step - it is step 2 under "Activating Units" on page 12 of the RRG. You just won't always *do* something during that step.

The RRG entry for Inspire X on page 30 also further clarifies this by saying “remove a total of up to x suppression tokens [...]”.

Question C begots Question A. If you would have to have suppression to have a Rally step then you wouldn’t get the Take Cover action. But like you answered, you get a Rally step regardless.

Thanks for the help.

You're welcome, but you're incorrect. You have a bad misunderstanding about something - Take Cover does not say anything about suppression or your Rally phase. It is an Action that gives two trooper units a Dodge token. It could not have anything to do with Rally because you can't take any actions during your Rally phase (unless a free action specified it), taking actions is the next phase of your unit's activation.

You're right. I meant to say "Inspire 2" not "Take Cover".
