81.5 STEP 5—GAIN AND REDISTRIBUTE COMMAND TOKENS: Each player gains two command tokens. A player takes each gained token from their reinforcements. Then, each player can redistribute each command token on their command sheet, including the two they just gained, among their strategy, tactic, and fleet pools. a Players should remember to check the number of their ships in each system after reducing the size of their fleet pools. b This step can usually be resolved simultaneously, but if there is a timing conflict, it is resolved in initiative order. a The readied side contains the strategy card’s name, initiative number, and abilities. b The exhausted side contains the strategy card’s initiative number.
