Not that you're likely to take along two captains, but just curious.

My initial transcription is just a bit vague - I'm sure the official version is better, and someone official will provide the proper wording.

Yes, that isn't the final wording on the CE. I do believe it is "name contains Antarian Ranger".

The Antarian Ranger Captain is very nice addition. I particularly like he's CE that grants squad firepower to a mini that was made by WOTC. As someone who makes customs for each Vset character I cannot abide vsets character that have thing like that, there is no way on earth that i am going to make 4 custom minis of the same character to use squad abilities. This however I can live with.

It would have helped with twin attack, but I'll settle for squad firepower. How much does the Antarian Captain cost

I don't know that most of them were Gotals, clearly the WotC fig isn't, but the founder was. Maybe that assassin could be someone like http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Jauxson. More Pirates!
