Rules Q&A
- Q: Just asking does the reaction on Solid Defense requires you to have the Imperial Favor in order to negate honor loss or just need to have a 5F personality?
A: If you control a 5 or higher Force Personality, you do not need to control the Imperial Favor.
The 5+F Personality clause replaces the cost of discarding the Favor. Ben Higgins, "Solid Defense requirement", 9 Sep 2013
