Finished the Imperial commander updates!

So in case you, the reader, was unaware, the Starhawk teaser article came out today. Go check it out if you haven't yet. In other news, I've finished updating the Imperial commander articles.

This is how you get a toxic work environment, Vader.
Every commander has been updated to the Imperial commander format (rules/discussion/ships/fleet building) and had hyperlinks updated/add as well as...
  • Darth Vader
    • Removed part about how I'm not keen on Screed with blue crits (yes, there are a few Screed references/comparisons in the Vader article). With HIEs now, I'm just fine with him there, so both he and Vader work fine for that.
    • Pretty much everything apart from the rules discussion got a substantial rewrite, often from the ground up, so it's easier to just say "go reread it."
  • Emperor Palpatine
    • Given I just wrote this one not long ago, I mostly just added a "ships" section to the article and reconfigured/expanded on the "fleet builds" section a bit.
  • General Tagge
    • Is still bad, just like his buddy Konstantine.
    • Another incidence of updating "turn" to "round" in older articles to keep consistent with correct Armada terminology.
    • Streamlined ships list, added SSD.
  • Grand Admiral Thrawn
    • Minimal changes needed, as the added "ships" section comes down to "it really depends on what you want your fleet to do because it turns out everything enjoys doing two dial-strength commands when it activates."
  • Grand Moff Tarkin
    • Cleaned up the article a bit with the new format. Similar to Grand Admiral Thrawn, it's much more difficult to really spell out what kind of ships you want when the commander can be used so flexibly.
  • Moff Jerjerrod
    • A lot more added to Jerry's "rules" section, as there are some additional shenanigans possible nowadays with some different interactions. This is probably one of the most important update sections I've added to the various commanders so if you're running Jerry please give it a look.
    • Otherwise just a bit of your standard cleanup/adding links/adding a "ships" section.
