Doubts about Leia, Veers etc

By Seabook, in Rules

Hello all. I started to play Legion recently and got a few doubts... I hope someone can help me out:

1) Leia's "No time for sorrow (NTFS)" can issue an order for another commander like Luke Skywalker? Saw lots of people asking about if Leia's NTFS can trigger Luke's charge. I don't know if Luke can be counted as a "Trooper" since he is a Commander and can be issued an order from Leia, also I am not sure if Leia's NTFS free move counts as action move.

2) Leia's NTFS mentions "speed-1 move". Is that a withdraw movement or just a regular range 1 move?

3) How Leia' "Somebody have to save our skins" works? Right after Leia finish doing her 2 actions, I can activate another unit with her?

4) Just to be sure, what a "faceup order token" means? Faceup order token means that unit can be activated or it can't be activated because it was already activated this round?

5) Airspeeder with Wedge Antilles, how do you do a Full Pivot? I know a pivot is something like 90º, so a Full Pivot I can position the Airspeeder to any place I want or need to be exactly 90º, 180º, 270º or 360º?

6) Han Solo' "Sorry about the mess", is he always activated first with it or if my oponent have 1 pip command card, he can activate his unit first?

Hi and welcome to this awesome game 🙂
To answer your questions:

1) She can issue an order to Luke as Luke is a trooper (you can see that in its unit card right under the small picture), but he cannot trigger Charge with that move, as its not a move action.

2) Its just a regular speed 1 move, you cannot use it to withdraw from an engagement.

3) After Leia's activation ends, if there is another of your units at range 1-2 of her that has a face up order token, you can activate that unit right away, giving you effectively 2 activations in a row.

4) A unit with a face up order token is a unit to which you assigned an order token during the command phase of that turn (most commonly by the command card you played). If a unit has a face up order token, then that unit hasn't activated yet that round.

5) You can rotate it any way you want.

6) You count the pips, "Sorry about the mess" has 0 so unless you're playing a mirror match against another Han Solo who played that same card, then you will always get initiative for that turn. But that doesn't mean that you have to activate Han first. You can do that or activate another of your units first.

Thanks for the reply! :D

1) Yeah, that was my understanding as well, it just triggered me how many people said that this was possible and lots of people said it is not, so it is hard to know who is right.

2) Ah, I see. So that "negative" 1 is not a withdraw move, it kinda looks a "-1", dunno if that was their intention.

3) Nice! It is a good command order then.

4) Gotcha, thanks for the clarification.

5) Also sweet, funny thing was I didn't had to use this. Somehow I positioned well the Airspeeder to attack both sides and did some good attacks with it. But it is good to know in case something goes wrong to get those double arcs firing, lol.

6) Ah, true, nice tip out there. Again, thanks for the replyes!

It's not a negative, for some reason they always put the "-" between "speed" and the number. You may take the short text of Scout 2 in the Rebel Commandos card as another example for a different speed move:

And just to be clear, a regular pivot is “up to” 90 degrees. You don’t have to go all the way to 90 if you don’t want.

I see, that is good to know, thanks! ^^
