Interesting.
I never could find practical use for officers/commanders, except taking them for a few useful talents (hello stiff salute).
Maybe this mod will change that

The idea is that you can build around Combat Medic or other pistol crew to have a good combat officer. What would make this type of specialization more interesting?

Not like I was ever sending my commander into Xenos combat with a pistol anyway

Nice

And, in mod-land, there is no unlock on the FDF Commander :D
