I think Ferus is a good replacement for Chewie. A big part of the god squad in the past was the Chag Merc Commander, but it looks like you'll be able to bring him in with Lobot's reinforcements. It also had Han in ST Armor to increase the threat range of Luke and Obi...but Han Smuggler is so effective (with Rieekan and Leia) that I think it's a good trade...and especially since Luke needs to be within 6 of Yoda FS to use Yoda's FP, the Charging Fire would end up working against you in some cases and going unused in others. So far so good.
The other key element was sacrificing Obi to give MotF2 to Luke so that he could UTF twice per round. The attack would look something like this: UTF on first attack for 60dmg, then Flurry to UTF again for another 60, then Flurry for another 20, then make a second (lol) attack if necessary...or just get out of harm's way. That's 140-160dmg in one activation...oh, and do it all over again with Leia's CE too, if you have enough fp. Not many squads can survive that.
But with this squad, and without MotF2, Luke can only do 80-100dmg in one activation...("only" 100dmg! lol) I guess you could do it again with Leia's CE too, so you're looking at up to 190dmg in 2 activations, which is solid. This version certainly is good. The Han/Leia combo can keep your opponents busy for a while, which allows Luke to build up more FP. It's also less of a 1-trick pony, because now you have Han and Ferus as solid long-term threats, in addition to Luke.
Nice job! I won't presume to make comments beyond that, since I was not the one who designed the squad, and so I'm sure I'm not understanding some of the finer points about how to play it. I do like it when we can bring formerly-competitive pieces and squads back, though.
