Beskar Mando's Bonus Turn in Galactic Challenge
I have a super technical question - It revolves around the TM rules and who goes first. This pertains to the last galactic challenge of Takodana: Droids vs Resistance, which ran from 5/28-5/30/21.
I think something wasn't working as intended with Beskar Mando. In that galactic challenge, when RH Finn uses his first special (Strength of Will) he hits a scoundrel (normally Kuiil) to below 75% HP and TM swaps with RH Poe. His kit specially says, "...swap turn meter with another resistance ally..." As RH Finn was taking a turn, this means that RH Poe should have 100% TM now.
Beskar Mando TM bar also fills up to max, showing his bonus turn has registered, but RH Poe (who just gets TM gain, not a bonus turn) always went first before Beskar. Bando's kit specially says, "The first time each Scoundrel ally falls below 75% Health, The Mandalorian (Beskar Armor)... takes a bonus turn."
When I read through the post about the changes (source: https://forums.galaxy-of-heroes.starwars.ea.com/discussion/234241/turn-meter-speed-overflow-changes), I see "NOTE #1: Units who have been granted a bonus turn are subject to the same rules, but they will take their turn before anyone who has not been granted a bonus turn." Based on this, shouldn't Beskar Mando go first because the bonus turn overrides the TM gain? Or is TM swap considered a bonus turn? Or have I completely misunderstood and this is only a case of speed (because they both should have same overflow)?
This was really bugging me and I reproduced this every time for a half dozen attempts (sorry, no video).
Extra Note: This seem to only be the case in the galactic challenge. I tried to see if the same thing happens in conquest against a resistance team, but in when I reproduced the same scenario in conquest (RH Finn knocking a Scoundrel to below 75% health with Strength of Will and passing turn to RH Poe), Bando took his bonus turn before RH Poe went.
Thanks so much for any comments. Cheers,
Jeromy
