rules are...confusing, coming from previous editions

On a 4+ that order can affect an additional CADIAN unit of the same type as the original target.

LasCannon Team 1 & LasCannon Team 2 (next to Warlord)
Issue whatever order to LCT 1, I am also "Affecting" LCT 2

Can the [/b]affected unit no longer receive it's own order? Since i did not issue the "original" order to LCT 2?

Under Voice of Command:
"A Unit may only be affected[b] by one order per turn"

I think i answered the question, but wanted clarity on the entire line of thinking...

You have it right, if you affect a second unit with the Cadian Trait, that unit cannot get another order from another officer.

I don't really understand what you're asking, but looks like you're over-reading meaning into choice of the word 'affect'. If you order LCT 1 and it successfully affects LCT 2 as well, both benefit from the order's buff.

Edit: oh I get it after reading BCB's post. The wording of the OP was super unclear to me! Agree with his take.

The Laurels of Command heirloom does let you issue a second order to a unit on a 4+ though. Which could then presumably affect another unit within 6"?
