    The one sentence paragraph reads:
"Note that the superior only has to use ONE of his actions in order to
give the
subordinate a full 2-action activation, and thus may attempt to
communicate with
and activate TWO subordinate units in the one turn if he wishes (though
both must
be resolved at the same time)."

    It is unclear if the "resolved at the same time" applies to a single
unit,
since the sentence specifically mentions TWO units.  It is also unclear
if the
"both" that must be "resolved at the same time" refers to the
communication rolls
or the actual activations.  If it refers to the activations, it could be
interpreted to mean that the two seperate activations are completed
before any
other actions occur, ie before the opponent gets to activate.
