Issuing Commands to Operatives

By Elliphino, in Rules

If an operative is out of range of your commander, he/she can't be issued a command, even if they have a unit specific command card, right?

For example, in a Veers/Boba Fett list, if Boba is outside of range 3 from Veers, I can't issue a Boba Fett command card to him, right?

Thanks in advance for your replies!

no, with operative specific cards you issue as if those were commanders, so you give them tokens and also if they gave other units activation then measure from them.

Thanks! Is that a new rule that comes with the operatives or something? Is it in an FAQ? Because in the current rules reference it would seem that a unit with the commander token would have to issue all orders... unless that unit is defeated and a new commander is promoted.

page 46 of the RRG
When playing an operative’s command card, the player does not nominate a commander; instead they nominate the operative, and that operative issues orders.

Awesome, thanks!
