"If the Geo Soldier is making the attack, then Sonic Weapon would come into play. If the GeoSoldier is combining fire, it doesn't come into play. That character isn't making an attack. It's giving up it's action to give another character a better chance to hit.
As for melee, you cannot combine fire on a Melee Attack."
It is as I feared...how then does one make effective use of low accuracy/low damage sonic attack? Spotter...CE
any suggestions would be welcome
(uncertain if this is the proper venue, I'll post this in general as well)

You could use it in a San Hill squad and if you out activate your opponent, make and attack with the Geonosian and then your IG-86s, force users wouldnt be able to use Deflect and Reflect for the rest of the turn, which hopefully would be a couple of Twin Opportunists attacks.

"end of turn".
So it ends when the turn that he attacks is over. It does not go onto other character's turns such as the example listed above.
It's most useful for setting up AoO's at this time, if you can force a character to move past you in order to get to the better targets.
Mostly though, it's pretty useless.

My bad. I thought it meant players turn. That does seem useless then.

yes if the ability were to last through the phase rather than the turn it would be so very much more efficient.
What I've come up with is using a couple of B1s and a Jawa scout to combine fire with the bug for a total of +14 atk with 30 DMG (not affected by Block or Alter)

It would be nice if they errata'd the SA to say "until end of round"...not just til end of turn. Now that would be fun. (and particularly nasty)
