The Army Commander can boost one subordinate's command rating only if he can see him.

How it works

If a line of sight can be drawn from the Army Commander to a Brigade Commander, that commander gets +1 Command Rating. Usable once per turn and the beneficiary must be declared before any command rolls, which keeps the Army Commander on high ground.
