Fire Control System says: After you perform an attack, you may acquire a target lock on the defender.

Han Solo crew says:When attacking, if you have a target lock on the defender, you may spend that target lock to change all of your F results to hit results

My question is that if I use a target lock to fire a torpedo do I get the target lock back as soon as I roll my attack dice satisfying the "perform an attack" which I then can use Han or is perform attack encompass all steps of an attack and the target lock would reacquire after the conclusion of the attack when all results have already been figured out. I feel like its as soon as I do the attack so I should be able to use Han but would like to know for sure.

If you spend a target lock to fire a torpedo, it's now spent and you no longer have it. Then you proceed through all 7 steps of the attack until you've finished. It's now in the timing window for Fire Control System (after an attack) and that grants you a target lock on the defender. It's too late to use this target lock for the attack.

If you spend a target lock to fire a torpedo, Han will not be able to trigger at all.

Ok I should have figured that since I know you can't use the acquired Target lock during that attack that it was probably after the attack was completed.

If you want the ability to spend and then utilise a target lock on an ordinance, you need the Punisher with Redline

Colonel Vessery could also do so provided someone else also has a TL on the target. He may spend the TL to fire ordnance then after the dice are rolled his ability will allow him to reacquire the TL provided someone else a TL on the target.

Alternatively, JumpMaster5000s with Deadeye and R4 Agromech.

(Or any Scum with ordnance and R4 Agromech, though it takes a couple turns to set up: 1) acquire TL. 2) focus, spend TL to fire ordnance, spend focus to modify, acquire TL, spend TL to modify.)

I was looking for a way to use the Han Solo crew card.

The VCX-100 has a Systems Slot and 2xCrew.

So you can take FCS, Han, and Gunner. After you fire, you get the TL from FCS. If the shot missed, Gunner triggers and you can fire again, and then either use the TL to reroll dice or convert focus to hits, depending on which is better.

I'm not saying this is a great combo necessarily, but it would be a way to get use of Han on a non-Epic ship.

Han would love to work with a K4 security droid, and is kind of outplayed by an R4 agromech. Poor guy, the Scum faction doesn't even need him back.
