using advanced proton torpedoes with marksman?

By MedicFett, in X-Wing Rules Questions

I was told that I could not use advanced proton torpedoes with marksman, can I get some clarification with this plz

Thanks

Well, you need to spend your target lock to fire them, and Marksmanship is also an action, but if you were able to get both of them off, it would work.

Provided you already have a target lock then no problem

Ok that is what I thought thank you

To clarify the only thing I can see being an actual misunderstanding behind this, Marksmanship works against all attacks, not just primary weapons. So you can use it with any missile, torpedo, cannon, etc.

When you modify attack dice, you can use your abilities in any order you like. You choose to use the APT ability first, changing blanks to eyes. After that you use marksmanship, which changes one eye to a crit and the other eyes to hits. (After that, you could use your focus token to modify the remaining zero eye results.)

Thanks for that. Very helpful.
