Can I get some clarification on this? Can Large units have one point of their base in the starting area, or do they have to have all of it?

From the FAQ
Setup
Q: What do I do if my squad contains too many characters or characters who are too big to all fit in the designated starting areas?
A: Place as many characters as you can in the starting area, then any remaining characters in adjacent squares as close as possible to that area. Set up Huge characters first, then Large, then Medium and Small characters.

Q: When setting up a large or bigger character in the standard starting area, does the whole base have to be in the starting area, or do you just count range from the edge?
A: Count range from the edge. In effect, part of its base may be outside of the starting area while still meeting the requirement for being within 4 squares of the edge.

Q: If I start the battle with a character next to a door, is the door open?
A: Yes. Doors adjacent to characters after setup are open prior to the first activation.

From Jedi Counseling 110:

Q: Can a character with Emplacement set up across a door?

A: No. Doors start the game closed and do not open until a character ends its turn adjacent to the door (or until some other special ability, such as Override, comes into play). Given this, the door is treated as a wall during setup, and a character cannot have its space divided by a wall.

Now I do understand that the official FAQ takes precedence over the JC, but someone should get a final ruling on this prior to a major tourney, like something at GenCon...

Rulebook takes precedent over JC and FAQ, and the rulebook sides with the FAQ. They are closed when you place your figures, but open after setup.

Once again we see why Jedi Counseling is so, so, SO bad. ~DSBoom

ok, closed when placing, open before playing.

What about anticipation? If i move a character near a door and then activate it first, will the door be open or closed? Doors only open when a turn ends, and since no turn has ended... i guess it would be closed, but would like a clarification, please.

Closed. Door checks happen after a character activates and Anticipation/INtuition are not counted as an activation


so just for my clairification:

If I use Intuition to move over to a door the door is still closed until the Intuition character activates/ends his activation to open the door???
