Quick question guys. Does tactician work when using Boba Fett's rear firing arc? If so, does it work on turreted ships?
Thanks.

Yes and no, respectively.
To elaborate. Tactician requires a firing arc. The auxiliary arc on a firespray (and, soon, the hounds tooth) is an arc, and so tactician works. Turrets do not have an extra or expanded firing arc, they have a special rule that allows them to fire outside of their normal arc. So a tactician on a turreted ship only triggers when the target is inside the ship's normal firing arc.
Also worth keeping in mind that determining whether or not a target is in arc happens completely independently of determining range. You determine whether a ship is in arc using the rules for arc, then you determine what range the ship is at using the rules for range.
Edited by ForgottenloreAnd to elaborate on a slightly different, but related tangent, the auxiliary arc is a primary weapon arc, which means you can't shoot secondary weapons within the auxiliary arc, only primary weapons. But it is an arc for the likes of Tactician, Howlrunner, Backstabber, etc.

Think you mean backstabber, not howlrunner.

It's still an arc for Howlrunner; she just doesn't care that much about it.
Quite right. ![]()
