So I just got this crazy idea, what if you could skip your turn. For example you are play galactic war and your enemy is low only one more hit. What if you could skop that turn and then heal yourself. ( i dont know if that made sense i hope it did). Just an idea i think it would be a nice edition to the game

Nice idea!
That being said - I do think the game should have it overall. I hate it when I am forced to attack someone who has counter-attack, knowing that it's going to kill my character. One option to accomplish this would be that every character has a passive skill - one that provides little to no benefit, but that allows that character to do some sort of non-attack move. It would have cooldowns just like every other ability, which would curb any overuse (though I'm not sure why overuse would be a problem outside of GW)
It couldn't really be abused if the opposing team can still target you, your character can still take damage and die. Skipping or passing your turn is only useful in avoiding making an attack against an enemy that would counterattack forcing you to basically commit suicide.
You skip turn on Geo Soldier so the dude do not die and Luminara acts and refreshes the heal or Poggle refreshes his buff. Ussually the cooldowns you want to refresh are in chars with low damage. It is the heavy hitters the ones you want to skip turn.
This but why not go futher and make it a defend option that makes you take x % less damage while you are in defense.
Edit: maybe to avoid abuse it takes one turn to swap from defense to offense again.
While it is sensible, attackers already have enough advantage over the poor A.I and yet, you want to add one more advantage? Uh... no, thanks.
Example - If I have a toon with 10% health it should not be made to attack somebody with counter.

Say you have 3 characters that "pop" at the same time, I'd prefer to be able to swap to the other characters for strategic advantage. IE. Jedi Consular and Barriss, on the healer and support challenge, 3 times in a row it made me use Barriss before Consular even tho they popped at the same time. It would have been to my advantage to use Consular''s heal before Barriss', but I had no option to swap ready characters.
