My first thought was to try to ape Amanda Waller, but that's not quite right, since they're not in that leadership role where they should be boosting your efficiency.
Good points. I felt like the "No Lantern Escapes the Alpha Lanterns" represented that part. Except for the Alpha War, I've always viewed the Alpha Lanterns as more uneasy allies to the GLC than strictly internal affairs officers. They fought alongside the GLC on many occasions.

Maybe the Alpha Lantern could turn against one of your figures that is excessively violent or something? I'm not sure how to represent that in gameplay, because thematically in Heroscape losing all your life can represent death or just a KO.

No, they have a link to the central power battery built-in to themselves. That's why they have higher base stats and range than the normal Lanterns.
