Han Solo's bonus action
In a Facebook group that I'm in someone asked why their Raid Han wasn't going first. We problem solved this to the following situation. There was no Han on the opposing team, it was an empire team. Th...

On a similar note:
If any other character is in a situation with multiple characters at 100% TM. This character has a status effect which lasts for 2 turns. His TM is then reduced to less than 100% before performing an action by some other character going first. Shortly after he regains his full TM. Does the status effect then expire? According to the logic in this thread he took his 2 turns already by reaching 100% TM twice even though he didn't take any action the first time.
Another question:
Do 'at the start of turn' effects (F.ex. ST Han with his Bluff ability) happen immediately when the character reaches 100% TM? Or don't they happen until that characters takes an action? According to the logic stated in this thread they should happen immediately when they reach 100% TM (because that's what taking a turn means) and not at the point of taking an action, but I doubt that this is true (just a guess, though).
If multiple characters with such 'start of turn effects' reach 100% TM at the same time will there then be several coin tosses — the first to decide which 'start of turn' effect happens first and the next to decide which character takes the first action? Could the order be different for the two coin tosses? If taking a turn really simply means 'reaching 100% TM' then we should see those two different coin tosses.
If taking a turn really means 'reaching 100% TM' then why don't status effects expire upon reaching 100% TM instead of after the character takes an action?
Again, I'm aware that Han is WAI, but I challenge that it is working as described in his ability description.
Yes, I believe that 100% TM and then reduced from 100% TM counts as a turn. I think (but j could be wrong) that I have seen Han get tmr and then come back and not be locked to only his basic, so yes as the logic is that moment counts as a turn.
As far as status effects they are probably programmed to happen after the action not according to the TM meter. So they may not be effected as the same logic, because they count a turn by the action taken.
But as far as being given a "bonus turn" for han, he is given 100% tm that he didn't "earn" naturally, therefore it is a bonus. Yes it could be coded differently so he gets the "first action" only to coin toss with another Han, but this not what they decided to do. They make all toon subject to the same system.
