Sector governors were known as Moffs. An Imperial governor could wear a standard Imperial uniform, in the case of Arihnda Pryce,Star Wars Rebels: Steps Into Shadow or a white outfit, as donned by Ubrik Adelhard. Imperial governors also wore rank insignia plaques consisting of six blue squares over three red and three yellow. Wilhuff Tarkin was governor of the Outer Rim Territories under his rank of Grand Moff. Beyond the term governor referring to his actual power over the Rim, he continued to be widely known as "Governor" as a honorific title. By 2 BBY,Dawn of Rebellion dates the events of Star Wars Rebels: Steps Into Shadow seventeen years after the end of the Clone Wars, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates to 19 BBY; therefore, the events of Steps Into Shadow must take place in 2 BBY. According to Star Wars: On the Front Lines, Mon Mothma's denunciation of the Galactic Empire and the Declaration of the Rebel Alliance take place 2 years before the Battle of Yavin or 2 BBY. As "Imperial Supercommandos" is set between Steps Into Shadow and "Secret Cargo," the events of the episode must also take place in 2 BBY.
