My HK shoots at Jedi Luke and deals damage and the reflect happens. Now, before reflect, is there a window between calculating damage and after the attack resolves for the use of opportunistic to move my character?

That's a good question. Opportunistic is "Use after a hostile figure suffers damage." and Luke is "Use after an attack resolves." However, applying damage is the last step in the attack, so.... I dunno.

I would think by the wording that Opportunistic would trigger before Luke's Deflect but I am no expert. It seems like Opportunistic would occur during the process of the attack and Deflect triggers once an attack fully resolves.

Damage is suffered during step 7 of the attack. It is before the attack resolves.

There are a lot of abilities that trigger from figures suffering damage (becoming defeated for one).

Yes you could play opportunistic. But if you are playing it on the HK who is activating, the mp goes into the movement pool. Then the attack resolves and Luke can reflect. Then you have 3mp to spend..

If you were playing opportunistic on a figure who isn't the HK who is activating, then that figure could use the 3mp instantly before Luke would resolve his reflect.

That's a very good point. If you were looking to save the active figure from the Deflect damage, you'd have to give those 3mp to a figure that can block LOS from Luke and the active figure in order to make the Luke player choose a different valid target.

Same question. Only this time, Old Kenobi uses Hit and Run to kill someone within 3 spaces of the Royal Guard Champion, and wants to dart away before the RGC can enact Executor.

Since Hit and Run is a special action and must be used as part of the action?

Royal Guard Champion uses Executor during step 7 of the attack, which is before the attack resolves and Obi-Wan gets the movement points.

That's what I was thinking, and fearing.
