IMPERIAL COMMAND
All common figures you control with a Range number of 4 or more who follow the Galactic Empire and are within 4 clear sight spaces of at least one Imperial Officer you control add 1 to their Range Number.

WE'RE SENDING A SQUAD UP
After revealing a '1' Order Marker on this card and instead of taking a turn with this Imperial Officer, you may also reveal an 'X' Order Marker on this card. You may then place one full Squad of your own previously destroyed Common Squad figures who follow the Galactic Empire on this Army Card. If an opponent takes permanent control of this Army Card, remove any Squad figures from this card. At the end of the round, place any Squad figures on this card onto any empty spaces in your start zone, if possible, even if this Imperial Officer is destroyed.

Have you considered making alternate cards using other Imperial Officer figures since this is an Uncommon Hero?

I hope to eventually release other Imperial Officers as Unique Heroes. Many of the officers have elaborate histories on Wookiepedia that we can pull from to make a large list of Imperial generals.

Is that a reason not to make alternate cards available for people to use when playing with multiple Imperial Officers.

Anyway, just a suggestion. I'll have to see if I can persuade my buddies to let us mix some HoSS figures into our games.

I strongly suggest you try out some of our scenarios. They're really fun.

So, um, I'm in a game. Third OM of a round and Syvarris takes out the two last figures of the opposing army, Isamu and an Imp. officer, the catch? The officer has three death star troopers on his card. Do they lose or is there final OM 3 revealed and then the troopers are placed? Not sure, thanks in advance.

[mac122]

They are placed at the end of the round. If you have lost all your figures before the end of the round, then the game is over.

One last question then hopefully I can submit a test which happens first Wannok or placing a called up squad. If it is wannok the other side wins putting the last wound on an officer (who actually wasn't the one calling the squad.)

Hmmm...this one is a bit trickier since both things happen at the end of the round. My gut reaction would be to say Wannok takes precedence since is being activated by a figure still on the battlefield. Can't say this is an official ruling, though. Hopefully someone else can chime in.

Thanks for the answer, as you might see in my playtest I just ended up rolling off to decide it.

I was running a playtest a week or so ago with the combination of Wannok and the Imperial Officer as well. I played Wannok first, then sending down the squads. Though both are "At the End of the Round", that order seemed to make sense. Certainly not an official ruling though.
