Yeah, so you roll them after deployment as a pool of dice. You can then use a command die instead of a die you rolled.
Where does the command die come from? What is its value?
Ah, I see where the ambiguity it. The command dice are the dice you roll at the beginning. Any one of those command dice can replace a die you roll (like an attack).
Ahh I see now! I wasn't grokking that the rolled die you were talking about was one that comes later when you're rolling an attack or save.
Thank you for explaining!
