I'm IG88 and I want to zap Boba Fett with my Feedback Array.

I get the bump on Boba.

There are no other enemy ships in ig88's arc that could be shot at.

Can I still zap Boba with the Array?

I'm confused by the wording "Before you engage.." Does it simply mean before IG88's turn in the 'shooting phase' or does it mean before I have an actual chance to shoot at someone?

ie. Would I need one of Boba's allies in arc (and therefore be an engageable target) to be able to zap Boba?

Thanks

Yes you can. You engage (take a turn in the engagement phase) regardless of whether you have targets.

Brilliant, I did think it would be far too hard to pull off the other way.

Thanks

Engaging is basically a fancy term for "your (ship's) turn." Each ship sequentially engages during the engagement phase. What you do during your engagement is up to available targets and weapons... but you always engage, even if there's no viable target.

Thanks guys ?
