Can an Evangel with Imperial Decree resolved assign 1 damage to each of 4 defending creatures (3 Ravenblooms and 1 Recruit)?

Ruling: No. Imperial Decree does not change the meaning of "lethal damage" - you must still assign enough damage to a unit so that its total damage equals its might value before moving to the next unit during combat damage.

Sequence:

• Assign damage to the first defending unit until total damage on it equals its might
• Only then can you move to the next unit
• Continue until all damage is assigned or all units have lethal damage

Nuances:

• If a unit already has damage marked on it, you only need to assign enough additional damage to bring the total up to its might value
• With Imperial Decree, it's better to move units in one at a time so you can individually target the units you want to destroy
