Can someone confirm that this card can be played on any character who has a single focus Tolken...... And this immediately destroys that character.

It seems like a strong card given it only costs three and it can be used at anytime to wipe out Yoda or Luke.....

Am I missing something.

Not just any character--any unit with one or more focus tokens. You can Force Lightning an exhausted Home One or Redemption.

It's very good, especially when recurred with Emperor Palpatine. Keep a Counter-stroke or C-3PO handy if you're worried about this.

Can this card be played on Luke 'before' he activates the trust your feelings enhancement? I knew my oponent was going to transfer his focus token to it in order to have luke do a double strike and called to play my event card imediatly after he resolved his first strikes. At that moment in time, the unit is considered exhausted, right?

Depends. On the LS player's turn, they have the first opportunity to use an action in the action window after striking. On the DS's turn though, you'll have the first chance and could do it.

And so you would simply stop the opponent, if it is his turn, and ask if he is going to play an action. You would do this immediately after he strikes with Luke. If he passes, you would be able to use Force Lightning. Although usually, he will say: "Why yes, I WILL use Trust Your Feelings.... Sucker."
