From what I gather, if you use Lightsaber Sweep and are affected by Leia's CE or Borsk's CE that lets you move when you defeat an enemy, then after you move you can continue with Lightsaber Sweep and choose another enemy to attack. Is that correct? It would appear that this works only because Lightsaber Sweep does not use the targeting rules. Specifically, Lightsaber Sweep skips to Step 4 of the Resolving Effects list and in Step 17 it returns to Step 4.

I've also heard it mentioned that Unleash the Force has a similar Lawnmower Effect. It's in the FAQ so I guess it's true. Does that mean Unleash the Force does not target? It does not say that it doesn't target, but if it does target it should work like Blaster Barrage or Furious Assault. You would have to declare all legal targets in Step 1 and then limit yourself to those targets each time you return to step 2.

Thanks. I guess I took that saying too literally: "It targets unless it says it doesn't."

I assume "etc" includes War Throat, Thought Bomb, and Force Detonate. Seems to have the same language.

correct, and BECAUSE of the lawnmower effect, those mass area damage effects are NOT the answer to deathshots. Normally, as soon as you kill one guy with say (Unleash the Force or really any of those except thought bomb), that guy will kill the UTF guy with death shot, thus ending the effect.
