Well okay, altering the path of free-falling Star Destroyer. Tricky anyways. And smashing an AT-AT shouldn't be harder to do.

On the free-falling Star Destroyer, it's just a matter of spending a Destiny Point and rolling good on your UtF. Given the Secret Apprentice stats in the FUCG lists him as having a +20 on his UtF check, that wouldn't be too hard for him to accomplish.
An AT-AT would be even easier to manipulate (especially if spending a Destiny Point), since it's just Colossal-sized. As for crushing, technically you'd have to slam it into something else to do damage, but I'd say slamming it into the ground would work

Got mine today. Looking forward to some serious browsing tonight.

It's been done.
Luke Skywalker, Dark Empire comic series, #1. That series tended to go over-the-top in a lot of ways, so I'd say it was a spot in the campaign where the group was trying out the Unleashed rules.

I should hope that crushing an AT-AT or causing a Star Destroyer to fall out of the sky would be possible. Otherwise Vader's comment in A New Hope would be just a bluff. I'm paraphrasing: "The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the force." *choking added for emphasis*.
So, if the force is supposed to be much stronger than the Death Star, then hurling star destoyers and other things much smaller should be a piece of cake.
I just remembered. I think there was an alternate universe where leia turns to the dark side and she an luke battle it out. Then Yoda shows up and takes on the emperor. When Yoda looks like he's going to loose, he pulls the death star out of orbit right on top of him and the emperor. Thus ending the reign of the empire. I can't remember if coruscant was also destroyed or just severly devastated.

I believe there was an instance, in the first or second Jedi Academy novel, where apprentices used one of the pyramids on Yavin to channel the force from all of the apprentices, through a single apprentice at the apex of the pyramid, who used that force to throw an entire Imperial fleet out of the solar system (the force of the blast even knocked all of the fleets computers, engines and sytems off line as if they were hit by a massive Ion blast). Now granted, this was in a novel and not in a game, and the apprentice at the apex of the pyramid was essentially consumed by the force (becoming one with it like Obi Wan or Yoda), but it was a massive display of the power of the force. And absolutely making the Death Star look insignificant compared to it.
There was also the time where Luke was so powerful with the force, he levitated Darth Vaders destroyed palace out of a sea, reassembled it in the air, and then set it down on a new location. He even reassembled it so it didn't have doors. He had to use the force to create an opening, and then closed it up after entering, making it virtually inacessible to anybody without his level of mastery of the force (I don't remember which novel this was from, but I remember this part of the story).
On a smaller scale, there was the time when Luke was being held in a Yuzhon Vong pain device (can't really call it a torture device since the Vong use it voluntarily
), and used the force to levitate and control two ignited light sabers, at the same time, to defeat some Vong soldiers attacking him and a companion. (Or the time Luke levitated to the surface of a planet after having an X-wing shot out from under him, and the time where Luke . . .)
In the right hands, the Force is very strong indeed (in a fictional, this isn't real, gaming sense only - of course
).

The right hands being, of course, writers with minimal sense of setting continuity.

Hmmm.... Maybe Star Wars needs epic levels?
