Effect
As an Action, you extend your awareness and strengthen the resolve of your allies. Choose any number of allied creatures within 30 ft who can see or hear you. Until the end of your next turn, those allies have advantage on attack rolls and gain a bonus to their damage rolls equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum 1). You must maintain line of sight or telepathic contact with affected allies for the benefit to continue.
At the Table
Your squad is pinned in a corridor, blaster bolts chewing the walls. You spend an Action and 3 FP, calling out to every ally within 30 ft who can see or hear you, and their fear sharpens into focus. Until the end of your next turn, all of them swing with advantage on attack rolls and add your Wisdom modifier (minimum 1) to every damage roll, turning a desperate stand into a coordinated push. Just keep them in line of sight or hold telepathic contact, or the resolve fades.
In the Lore
Battle Meditation is one of the most storied applications of the Force, a discipline of will that lets a single Force-user bolster the morale, coordination, and fighting spirit of an entire army while sapping the enemy's. In Legends it is famously wielded by Jedi like Nomi Sunrider and Bastila Shan, whose battle meditation in Knights of the Old Republic was pivotal enough that both the Republic and the Sith fought to control her for it. The Sith twisted the same power to drive their forces into relentless, fearless assault, making it a coveted edge on both sides of galactic war. As a Light-side Mind discipline, it embodies the Jedi ideal of strength through unity, lifting allies rather than dominating foes directly.
