FCS

By cubby09, in X-Wing Rules Questions

sorry if this has been brought up before. is the TL from FCS considered an action as applicable to stress...for example hobbie with R3A2 attacks and causes stress to a BSP with FCS. the BSP then attacks with the stress from the stressbot. Does it get the TL from FCS?

Acquiring a target lock is not the same as performing a target lock action.

So in this case, the BSP would still get a target lock.

As per the FAQ:

Acquiring a Target Lock
When an ability instructs you to acquire a target lock, this is different than
performing an ‘acquire a target lock’ action. It is possible to acquire a target lock
while stressed, and a ship can acquire a target lock multiple times during the
same round. A ship can only perform one ‘acquire a target lock’ action per round.
Each ship is able to maintain one target lock, unless stated otherwise by a
game effect.
