Smuggler’s Run: Han doesn’t shoot first! Say what?!

Cannon is more than 100% clear. For years it has been well established, Han always shoots first ALWAYS.

Not in-game, at least. In every scenario where multiple toons can start at 100% TM, it's random which one goes first. Eg in TW going against a preloaded team and various PvE events with preloaded TM.

Seems this issue is like the thrawn one, that just got fixed , if han's ability says he goes first , not he gets 100% tm, it needs to be made clearer. Because he is supposed to go first then , not just be one of however many have 100% tm, just my opinion though.

The description reads:
Han takes a bonus turn at the start of each encounter. During this turn Han ignores Taunts and can only use his Basic ability, but it will Stun the target for one turn and can't be Resisted.
Noting about TM

The only way to take a turn is to have 100% TM. That is why to get his "bonus turn", he starts with 100% TM.

This has been functioning like this for as long as I remember. I doubt it ever gets changed.

Say that to GMY and his new immediate bonus turn, witch show it's possible to avoid the TM raffle
I know he is working on TM, as when he got that skill, it didn't matter as he would always go first and it was most likely the easiest way to code it, But with all that stuff that has happened in the game since, the title of the skill is somewhat getting more and more a false statement
as it stands now it's not a bug, but an outdated mechanic that might needs to be looked at

Correct it can be, when it is stated as such in the description. There is no such statements in Hans ability description.

Even GMY works on TM, he is just not subject to the coin toss of multiple toons.

Not to be too picky , but taking a bonus turn at the start of each encouter means going before turns start , which means no one elses turn meter should have moved. Or else if he goes after someone , how is that a bonus turn? Its not like he then goes twice when its his turn ? Where did his bonus turn go ? Because if i understand correctly , those toons who did go first are already accruing new tm , so where is the bonus ? I could be wrong idk?

Maybe it would it help to imagine that in these events, the enemy doesn’t have “ pre-loaded turn meter” but instead also gets a bonus turn each? Comes out to the same thing. Anecdotally, I’ve had GMY not get his 2nd turn right away in the ground assault event a couple of times, and I’m not sure but I think a couple of times in the smuggler event, Han didn’t go first, but also didn’t go last in the pre-loaded round. The coinflip might be going on here as well... pretty sure I saw him go, maybe, third, at one point.
