Lure of the Dark Side.

Choose a small Hostile figure. Does that mean that it's still Friendly to those figures on its squad? If so, can you utilize Hero Luke's reroll ability on that shot?

Ex: Can I run the Grand Inquisitor up and use Lure of the Dark Side on Leia, declare Luke as the target, roll dice, and then use her Luke's reroll?

There is a passage somewhere in the Rules Reference Guide - and probably also in some of the big box expansions - that a figure ordered like this is considered hostile to all other figures. So no rerolls from Luke.

The Bespin Gambit rules and the FAQ has an updated text for performing attacks with other figures. The Rules Reference Guide already has the chapter, but it has some bugs in it.

While performing an attack with another figure, that figure is considered hostile to all other figures (and other figures are considered hostile to that figure).

Thank you muchly!

I wish there was an errata that said this card doesn't work on Obi Wan. :P

I had Quizzy pop this card off on Obi Wan and Old Ben cut Leia in half.

Kenobi shouldn't be vulnerable to the Lure of the Dark Side! :P :P

I'm still bitter about that lol.
