Turn Meter Overflow and Bonus Turns
I’m not sure the interaction in the link below is working properly. I just played a match with Vader under a zEP lead against a padme team. Vader was the fastest character in the match by far. Duri...

The TM overflow rules still apply when characters gain bonus turns. Vader ended up at 100% TM when he gained his bonus turn since he had just performed an action. JKA and Ahsoka most likely ended up with some overflow (unless they were at 0% initially in your scenario). Speed is only considered if they are tied on TM overflow.
This.
Vader gets his bonus turn and has 0 overflow.
The other 2 get a bonus turn and turn whatever TM they had into overflow.
So now a bonus turn grants +100% turn meter instead of bringing a unit’s turn meter to 100%? Is that written down anywhere?
According to Kyno (a couple of years ago) a turn was defined as 100% TM. Hence gaining a bonus turn would be gaining 100% bonus TM (which couldn't be prevented - but Kyno never confirmed that part AFAIK). The outcome was the same as bringing the TM to 100% (because of the cap) but it was really an addition of 100% TM. That's how I read Kyno's definition back then.
