Outmaneuver subject to taunt? Even with multiple taunts on the board?

I would be greatly disappointed if this is a bug and not WAI. Based on the wording of Geo Spys reinforcement vs the wording of the Outmaneuver buff.

I think it is a bug. The application of a debuff is viewed as an "attack" as it can be dodge and doesn't trigger non-attack passives, see Poe and BB-8 / Akbar interaction for examples. This is no different, it is the application of a debuff that needs a target to apply. Since MF cannot be targeted, as long as there are at least two eligible targets, MF should not be able to be selected as a random target.

Spy is placing one taunt on the targeted ship when being chosen as a reinforcement and then applying a second that doesn't have taunt at random it is not targetting Falcon at all.

As for the issue itself, Why should this be treated any differently than the interaction between taunt and stealth? 

The selection of a random target is still targeting.  "Random" just indiciates the method in choosing the single target, not the act of targeting itself. The Falcon, based on its ability description, should be excluded from the pool of eligible ships to be targeted/chosen at random.  It's no different than other games where you need to choose a target at random, say by rolling a dice.  The action is still to target, it is the selction that is removed from the players hand.

And it's not being treated differently than the stealth / taunt interaction.  The core issue is whether HMF can be the target of an abiility, no matter how the target is selected.  

I jsut logged in here to report the same problem and was surprised that the thread is already exist.

Given that this "untargetability" is unique to the game (although similar to stealthed targets), it's certainly possible that there are unintended bugs in how it functions. That's why these reports are great!

The difference between stealth and outmanuever, from what I can tell, is that the definition of Stealth, at least from the list on Gaming Fans, is that the "Character can not be targeted directly", whereas, Outmanuever excludes the word "directly" and just says cannot be targeted.  To me, this implies that HMF, as long as it has the outmanuever buff, cannot be the target from any type of attack, whether it is direct, indirect, random, etc.  Outmanuever is basically an upgraded stealth ability.  At least that is how I am interpreting it with respect to otehr definititions in game.  

Opinions will vary, especially between HMF and Spy users.  I am an HMF user (full disclosure), but I am trying to look at this unbiasly, through other game definitions and interactions.  Really interested to see if we get an official response on this and what it is.

Everything else aside - even the new hotness needs it's counter.  Bug's have been flaunted since the beginning of ships 2.0 as the go-to line-up.  This continues to give them some life, still.
