From FAQ located on The Holocron:
lightsabers (characters with)
Q: It looks like the Dark Side Enforce has a lightsaber hilt on her belt. Does she count as a character with a lightsaber?
A: No. To qualify as a lightsaber while inspecting a miniature, it must contain the colored lightsaber blade. If that isn't visible on the miniature, you must check the stat card for any Force power or Special Ability containing the word "Lightsaber".
My question: I thought that the u/l part was removed? (ex: Lightsaber Duelist does not grant a character having a lightsaber)

from the Glossary on Holocron:
with lightsabers: Certain special abilities, such as Damage Reduction, list exceptions for enemies “with lightsabers.” It’s usually easy to tell whether or not a character has a lightsaber by checking whether its miniature has a lightsaber in hand, but a few characters do not have visible lightsabers. A character also counts as having a lightsaber if it has the Lightsaber special ability or a Force power whose name contains the word “Lightsaber.”
This is the more restricting explanation. (u/l mine)

Good catch - Kyle CI would be handing out Lightsabers left and right.

Yuck. That's the old imprecise version of the entry with the "Enforce" typo and all. I thought it was corrected previously when I compiled it all, but it's done now.

Thanks NN.
Just so it's here... (updated FAQ)

A: No. To qualify as a lightsaber while inspecting a miniature, it must contain the colored lightsaber blade. If that isn't visible on the miniature, you must check the stat card for the Lightsaber special ability specifically or any Force power containing the word "Lightsaber".
