My Romulans have been waiting anxiously for this card ever since the Cardassians got Central Command. Outpost-like reporting capabilities on Romulus, with HQ cards and selected dignitaries played for free, will give a big boost to Romulan decks.
As with Going To The Top, a personnel's status as a General, Admiral etc. is determined by their card title and lore. Sela and Tomalak get their own special "report for free" allowance, allowing you to bring Sela into play easily despite her lack of a matching commander download (Tomalak has two matching ships available to download to, including the universal D'deridex).
Combos:
- Office of the Proconsul + Investigate Coup: You can solve this mission with a single personnel, and he reports for free at headquarters.
- Office of the Proconsul + HQ: Secure Homeworld: If you don't care to use a seed slot for this objective, you can still play it for free and complete the homeworld mission on your own terms.
