Relevant Rulings
Do I count Battle Masters in my KO area?

Battle Masters in your KO area will be in their upgrade mode, either because they were played and subsequently left the battlefield or because you didnt play the upgrade after the character was KOd. This means they wont be characters in the KO area and wont add to Private Sideswipes bonus.
