I think it is the latter...

The Force Stun precedent seems to answer the question well. So attacks (only in conjunction with mobile or greater mobile) are an exception that can interrupt the movement action, but zero time abilities have to occur before or after (all) movement. That is how I thought it worked, but I was wondering if there was a loophole where mobile/GMA was concerned. Much obliged

I had always figured that was OK. Makes sense if it isn't, I just hadn't seen that scenario come up before (honestly, I'm not sure if it even CAN come up...)

Well, the original (unstated) impetus for my question was me thinking about Force Leap and GMA - which I believe would apply to only 3 pieces (two Reb Lukes w/Rieekan/TBSV, and Cade Padawan w/Gen Wedge/TBSV)... whether you could move and attack (hoping for a kill), and then declare FL (if needed) to move away with no AoO (and otherwise saving a FP if you managed to kill them). Rather far-fetched scenario, I know
