GC: Imperial Edict & Merciless Massacre

Does Imperial Edict make Darth Vader assist himself, rendering Merciless Massacre almost useless? I recall seeing comments about MM not working with a disk in Conquest, but I can't remember if this was the same thing. Imperial Edict says 'all other Empire allies are called to assist', so I had assumed MM would work.

Anyway, something in GC means Darth Vader can't use MM properly.
(I got red crate in 1 attempt, so I'm not after tips, just clarification on what the interaction is.)

    If Piett is present he can call Vader to assist, which will count as targeting an enemy and usually end MM.

    Interestingly, if Piett calls Vader during the actual MM ability, it’ll keep going but Merciless Target will be removed from whoever was targeted.
  • Thanks for the explanation; I did use Piett, so it's probably that interaction I saw.
