body guard specialization

By LordEnforcer, in Star Wars: Edge of the Empire RPG

When protecting someone do you have to be a certain range to that person? It does not state that in the book

"To guard an engaged ally"

I believe that means the ally has to be in engaged range if I'm not mistaken

That reads like the ally had to be engaged with an enemy.. It doesn't say anything about how close you must be to them...

"Once per round on the character's turn, the character may perform a Body Guard maneuver to protect one ally he is engaged with. ...upgrade the difficulty of all combat checks targeting the protected ally..."

In other words, reag the full description of the talent, not just the potted reminder on the talent tree.
