If Luke uses You Serve Your Master Well on an enemy unit which has at least one model in base contact with another enemy unit, is a melee engagement created for the duration of You Serve Your Master Well. If so, must the enemy unit (controlled by the Luke player) immediately snap into proper melee cohesion?

Hi there,

As stated by the You Serve Your Master Well command card free card action, the affected enemy unit "can attack and start a melee with other enemy units." And given in the Star Wars: Legion Core Rulebook introduction to Melee, "When two miniatures controlled by opposing players are in base contact, those units are in melee." Therefore, if an enemy unit targeted by Luke Skywalker's You Serve Your Master Well has any of its miniatures in base contact with another enemy unit, they are considered in melee with one another, as they can start a melee with other enemy units.

Yes, the unit targeted by You Serve Your Master Well can start a melee with other enemy units, and will do so if any of its miniatures are in base contact with another enemy unit.

No. Miniatures in a unit in melee who are not yet in base contact with opposing miniatures are placed into base contact with enemy miniatures either when Moving Into Melee or after suffering wounds in melee (see the Removing Miniatures in Melee call-out). As neither of these things have occurred in your given scenario (yet!), no miniatures in either unit will be moved.

Hope this helps,
Seth
