The command card says "After a friendly clone trooper unit that has a faceup order token performs an aim action during its activation, it may increase the maximum range of each of its ranged weapons by 1, to a maximum of 4, until the end of that activation."

What does a faceup order token mean in this context? Does it mean a unit that received an order during the command phase, or would it apply to any unit with a faceup token, including those that are pulled from the order pool since it would be faceup when it activates. If the latter, does this mean in theory every unit that activates, and thus gets a faceup token during it's activation, could take an aim action to increase their range by 1, up to the maximum of 4? 

To be clear, I'm assuming it's the former rather than the latter, but it's written poorly if that was the intent and could be more clearly written as "After a friendly clone trooper unit that has a faceup order token was issued an order performs an aim action during its activation, it may increase the maximum range of each of its ranged weapons by 1, to a maximum of 4, until the end of that activation."

Hi there,

Units are assigned a faceup order token when they are issued an order. Predominantly, this occurs during the Command Phase during the Issue Orders step.

When an order token is drawn from the order pool, during the Choose a Unit to Activate or Pass step of the Activation phase, the chosen unit is not assigned a faceup order token. The player activates a unit matching that order token, and then assigns that unit a facedown order token when their activation is complete. Refer to the Activation Phase entry for more detail.

Units activated using matching order tokens drawn from the order pool are not at any point given a faceup order token.

The effects of the Take That, Clankers! command card will only apply to units with a faceup order token.

Hope this helps,
Seth
