Like I said, treat doesn't mean change UNLESS FFG states that it does. I don't really give a crap about your opinions on the issue. Unless, of course, you're an FFG authority answering the issue.

And for the record, lawyers exist entirely based on words and interpretation. FAQ 4.3.1 is a good start toward an answer to the issue, but it is not a clear answer.

Hey, look what popped up in the thread!

If you use Ello Asty’s ability to treat the maneuver as white, you cannot acquire a target lock for free with Targeting Astromech since you did not execute a red maneuver.

So, it wasn't a red-then-white-but-still-a-little-bit-red manoeuvre, after all. It seems that if you did not execute a red manoeuvre, I guess it must have changed to a white manoeuvre. Because that's the only explanation for it not being a red manoeuvre anymore.

Finally. A satisfactory answer from ffg. Problem solved.

Never mind the fact that it is exactly what several people in the thread also said.

I wonder if it take FFG so long to release waves because all their time is taken up with inane rules questions that some common sense and basic English comprehension would solve...

answered perfectly within the first 2 post... some people just dont wanna understand.
