I have another question... When making Greedo--WHAT WERE YOU GUYS THINKING? I mean, medium missile, 40% SP ratio or so, medium base... goodness sake, he's ten points!

Ok. Here are my questions.
If Obi Wan, Series 1 Starter, is defeated and both his power comes up white, and he elects to sacrifice a Rebel Trooper, who is considered defeated? Is it Obi Wan, since he was knocked down and defeated although he sacrificed the Trooper to rise again? Is it the Trooper, as he ended up in the Defeated Area? Or, is it both the Rebel Trooper and Obi Wan?
Next: My Obi Wan, Series 2, #35 is knocked over and comes up black. In his wake while falling, he knocked down Tion Medon, who comes up white. Based upon your initial comments, if the opponent declares that Obi Wan was killed before Ki Adi, I should be able to Rally that defeated Obi Wan immediately, as he was considered Defeated upon falling (irrespective of whether he would've turned up white or not). Is this not the case? If not, why not? As you stated, a figure is knocked down, which is the equivalent of Defeated, and the bottom of a Recruit figure (with 2 exceptions) states that I may return a Defeated "X" to play from the defeated area, which indicates figures that have been defeated.
Next: Are special powers optional? There have been conflicting statements by Hasbro on this point, and I am curious to know what the deal is here.
Next: Does Stun mean that a figure simply can't move, as in forward/backward/lateral, or does it mean NO movement, such as rotation to fire or strike.
Next: There are certain figures whose Rally power does not specify from where a figure may be returned to play. By reading them literally, these figures, specifically, may bring back the recently departed, may they not, as they do not specify that the Rally is either "From the Defeated Area" or "A defeated figure". What is the ruling?
Thanks B!

Lets say someone knocks over Optimus (Gold base) and his special comes up white, therefore standing him back up. Is it fair to keep him in that spot so whenever he is knocked down his special will always be white?

Wow, I'm not even going near that one.
I was wondering, and this has probably been answered a long time ago or in another thread I haven't seen, but when a series one battle droid says put up to two other Battle droids in from your backups, does that have to be an actual battle droid or can it be a super battle droid or a battle droid commander? I only ask this because of the word other. It would have made the same sense as to say place up to two battle droids in from your backups, so that is why I have my question.

When a figure that is protected be "Evade" is knocked down, does it stand up where it fell down or where it originally was?

To Joe, Webhead, and everyone else: Sorry, I'll behave . Q. A two-part question, one looking for clarification and the other an actual question. 1. First, is the starting line the invisible (on an unmarked field) line where figures start (two tix from the outer boundary) or is it the actual outer boundary?
I question this because the quickstart guide on the site has an odd wording and an odd picture in it. The part I'm referring to is the last sentence in the paragraph following the first triangle. This seems to read as if the starting line is in fact the outer boundary. However, this quote is immediately followed by the following image: In this image, the starting line is listed as 2 tix from the edge. This seems to show that the starting line is, indeed, where your figures start. Now, for part 2. 2. If the starting line is in fact 2 tix from the edge, does this mean that Recruit and Rally bring figures in 4 tix from the edge?Thanks for your time.

Dengar's effect is "Nemesis" and states that if he defeats Han Solo then it does not count as an attack.
Does that count for Han Solo in Storm Trooper armor?

If a figure has the ability of rally it says " Return one of your jedi to play"(mace windu s2 srtr), but it never says where, is it at the playing area, or is it like recover?

Oh Spiffy Sultan, Based on what you know of your level of input into the mechanics of the game, how likely would it be that something along the lines of this suggestion would have any effect on the information that's released and/or maintained by Hasbro itself? That is, how receptive would they be to proffering our suggestions and issuing various errata or clarifications, much as seems to be done for Magic: The Gathering, HeroClix, and Star Wars miniatures? And how likely would it be that they would publish such errata and clarifications, anyway?

If I am playing somebody that is using Battle Droids and I have Mystique on my team. Can I put Battle Droids into my back ups in hope of possessing one of my opponents Battle Droids?
And during a Tournament could I make this change (adding B.D. to back ups) half way through the Tournament?

This is going to be an... interesting question. Probably because it hit me as I was about to shut it down for the night (morning, whatever...) and go to bed -
So far, Specials and Effects are related to specific figures (Clone Troopers, Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, etc...), Series (Pole Spidey's effect specifying they all must be Marvel figures), Attacktix Class (Specialist, Warrior, etc.) and series class (Rebel, Republic, Avengers, Autobots, etc.).....
Is there any chance of seeing Specials and Effects related to POINTS in the future?
I mean, like Recruit (30 points of Republic figures), Recover (If 40 point figure in play), Rally (return one 10 point figure to play) and the like...

Are we going to see anything in the future that could possibly reverse the effects of Vanquish?

I think this is more of a request than a question.
Do you think Hasbro will ever make a striking ROTJ Luke from the battle between him and Vader?
(I just worded it like a question)
