Field Promotion is a Dark Effect from Dagobah.
Card Text
Deploy on an Imperial of ability < 5 present with Vader, Emperor Palpatine or one of your admirals, generals or moffs. Imperial gains leader skill, is power +1 and is immune to Demotion, Report To Lord Vader and What Is Thy Bidding, My Master?. (Immune to Alter.)
Lore
Imperial officers are fiercely competitive, especially on the Executor. Lord Vader's flagship is a place where devious political calculation prospers. The naive are doomed to failure.
Joke
A field promotion is one made on the spot, like Captain Piett's in The Empire Strikes Back when Darth Vader chokes Admiral Ozzel and tells Piett "You are in command now, Admiral Piett."[1] The card makes the Imperial immune to Demotion and Report To Lord Vader, two other cards in the running gag of cards where Vader punishes his own officers.
