That could be classified as a Force attack. I think the damage modifier should be somewhere around the same as a Force choke. Or, it could rank up there with Force lightning...depending on the power of the user...

So my 3 year old was really fighting that last step of potty training. We knew he knew what he was doing, but nothing we said or did seemed to convince him to just handle his business. He'd just say "no, I don't have to go", followed almost immediately by "Poppa change me"...not only was this messy, but it was costing us a couple hundred a month in day-care discounts, but then we hit on the magic solution---"The Reek Movie".
The final 40 minutes of AOTC (the arena battle and the attack on geonosis) are just about the right length of time for a 3-year old's attention span, and there's not much dialogue to lose their interest. That part opens with the reek coming out of the tunnel into the arena (hence the name my son has given it). He had seen it once or twice before, and has a few action figures (including the reek, these are his favorite toys), and was always asking about it. We decided to take away the reek and friends when he got dirty, and let him watch the movie if he used the bathroom. It worked immediately, and that was that. Everyday on the way home he talks about how he has to go and use the bathroom so he can watch the movie.
Long story short, we no longer have messy pants in the house, and we've seen the end of AOTC almost every day for the last 3 months. Not so bad for me, but I think the wife is losing her mind...

My story isnt that funny but.. I am a contracter over here in japan and I have a girlfriend who is Japanese. Now the japanese know of star wars but not as fanatical as us americans. In anycase, she knew that i played the game but never saw it happening. So when she finally moved in with me, she would just kinda give me this strange look when i played, but after a few months... we will just be sitting there watching tv and i will hear here hum the Imperial March, hehehe.
Also when I am playing she will hear the battle music and ask if my guy is doing alright? That and I have her doing some things for me, like when I was grinding doctor, I had her check up on my guy periodically to make sure the macro was running... hehe, Now only if they made a Japanese port for star wars... she said she would play if they did.

My wife likes to see my yak.(as she calls it)
I mean my Bantha. So whenever she comes in the room while I am playing I whip it out.

At least we don't have to hear horror stories of him GROOMING his yak/bantha.
