Transport copilot question

By Corellian Luck, in X-Wing Rules Questions

Does Targeting Coordinator work on the transport?

Not sure since it doesn't have the target lock action.

Yep, it works. If an ability allows you to do something, you can do it even if your ship normally wouldn't be able to do that.

Yes, it should work. A ship does not need target lock on its action bar in order to acquire a target lock from another source.

Question is why you would want your transport to have a TL?

It works.

Perform a TL action and acquire a TL are different things. The TL action is one of several ways to acquire a TL. The TL icon in your action bar means you can perform the TL action while everyone can acquire a TL.

The Transport doesn't end up with the TL, the last part of Targeting Coordinator is to assign the blue target lock token to the chosen friendly ship at range 1-2.

Oh yes. That works as well.

I was thinking of the other end of the transaction: A huge ship with Targeting Coordinator hands the blue TL token to a transport. Which works fine.

Thanks all.

Planning on running one as a support ship next weekend in our epic tournament.
