Synaptic imperatives

[smclean9909]

It’s something I’ve never really considered before but do I have to choose a synaptic imperative in the first turn? I’m playing a casual boarding action game with a Broodlord as my only synapse creature, I’d like to be able to save it’s imperative for turn 2 potentially but is it mandatory to activate it on the first battle round?

Nope not mandatory. Just that your warlord and the synapse whose imperative you're using must be on the table

Imperative rule states you “can” select an imperative, not that you “must”.

LoL good timing for this, I played my first boarding action game yesterday with the broodlord as my HQ and I was wondering as well , what a coincidence! Thanks for the info guys!
