Eternal Warrior
"You heard me" Commissar Ryans is immune to "with all due respect Sir"
Expanded Summary execution - As Commisar Ryans is Fearless and which ever squad he is attached to takes it's cues from him he can concentrate on the other squads in the platoon. Ryans' Commisar power of Summary execution can be used on a squad in Bluey's Platoon if they are within 12 inches of Ryans himself
Inspire - At the start of the Anzac's turn with words of awesome inspiration Ryans may make a Ld test and provide one unit within 12 inches in Bluey's platoon +1 BS or +1 WS. Ryans himself doesn't benifet from this even if he is in the target squad
Platoon Commissar - Ryans is not an independent character (but does get a 4+ look out sir) and can only be used in Bluey's Platoon (in any of the squads)
A squad other than Bluey's Command squad that has Commissar Ryans in it must declare a charge it is able to do so.

WOff Von Luckner
Maybe added to any squad in Bluey Smith's platoon, if it is not Bluey Smith's command squad then the Command squad is one guardsman short for 45 points

Fleet of Foot (when infantry)
Skilled Driver (when in a vehicle)
Missed me (When in a vehicle)
As long as the vehicle has moved more than 3 inches in the last Anzac movement turn von Luckner's vehicle counts as having jinked but may fire as normal. (Skilled driver adds to make the jink 4 + cover save)
Can I drive? (When in a vehicle)
Von Lucker may choose not be apart of the platoon command squad and can elect to drive their dedicated transport, the vehicle that the command squad is in, or another guard vehicle which then becomes apart of the platoon for the purpose of counting a troop and therefore scoring and Bluey's Surprise. If the vehicle is destroyed then Von Luckner is unsuable for the rest of the game.
