Ok, this one is for Zuty (as he is sitting here)...

Can use choose the Obi Ghost to Haunt Han in Carbonite, then when the new Han comes in, can Han then gain those force points?

Thanks guys.

Since Han in Carbonite does not have a force rating, I would say no.

Ok, so what if the player also has Yoda of Dagobah (light tutor), is the Han in Carbonite still a legal target to give the force rating to? Plus, would the force points carry over to the Han once he is switched?

I know at least part of this situation wouldn't work. According to Han in Carbonite's card, he cannot activate, which means he can't gain any force points from the start of the game till when he becomes unfrozen.

A: No.

Well, there's an even simpler reason why you can't do it (or at least, why it won't really work). Obi-Ghost has to start with YOUR squad, where as Han in Carbonite starts next to your OPPONENT'S squad. So, you'd have to spend like....a ton of rounds (what...8 probably?) just to get Obi-Ghost across the board and close enough to the Han in Carbonite in order to get within the 4 square radius of Obi's abilities.

The simple answer though is that you have to declare who Obi-Wan is attached to during Set-up, I believe, and during set up, Han in Carbonite does not have a Force Rating, and the 'frozen' Han is technically not 'set up' on the board.

Ty all for the answers. I was just curious on how it would work out. Just another random idea I had.

Can a force spirit free han from the carbonite and bring in the actual han?

Ohhh good question. :D I would say no since the Errata specifially states it does not count as adjacent to any characters and that is a requirement for Frozen in Carbonite

Errata wrote:
Light Spirit
This character can move through enemy characters, and enemy characters can move through it, as long as no character ends its move in the same space as another character. This character does not count as the nearest enemy, and does not count as adjacent to other characters. This character is not affected by commander effects.

Thanks, seemed like it wouldn't work. But this post made me wonder.

Ahh, I see now maybe this post is what you are referring to that made you question. What Mandalore Lobo isn't realizing in his haste is that Han in Carbonite is an object and is not even a character, so his theory is pretty much toast in all aspects. :wink:
