Rule[]
This is the first step during Ship Phase.
Reveal the ship’s top command dial. Then either
- place the dial next to the ship or
- spend the dial to place the corresponding command token next to the ship in the play area.
A ship can resolve the effect of a command by spending a command dial or command token with the matching icon at the appropriate time.
After Reveal Command Dial, the next step of Ship Phase is Attack.
Rules Clarification[]
A ship can spend its command dial to gain a command token only when it reveals its command dial.*
Command dials that are gained through the effect of an upgrade card, such as Grand Admiral Thrawn, can be spent to assign the corresponding command token to that ship.
