Suppressive Fire Always Same Target?

By redviperofdorne, in X-Wing Rules Questions

Rex suppresses ship A in round one. Rex shoots at Ship B in round 2. Can he leave A suppressed, or does he have to switch to his new target B?

He has to assign to ship B as there is no “may” in his text

Rex's ability doesn't have a "may" option for him, so when he attacks, he must assign the Suppressive Fire condition card to the defender. If he shoots at Ship A in round 2, he assigns it to Ship A. If he shoots at Ship B in round 3, then he must move it from Ship A to Ship B.

If it's a real stress and you have the points spare you can add sabines tie and hotshot blaster :P
