RE: Switching HQ's

I believe it should be a one time reduction when you make the transfer.

It only reduces the amount of command points a HQ presently has. I don't think that it reduces the number of command points it gets each turn.

The only thing you can say about Star Wars, is they never forced a TV series on us.

I read somewhere that they are currently producing two - one animation and the other live action.
