Optimized Prototype

By Trudem, in X-Wing Squad Lists

I am having a hard time wrapping my head around the 2.0 version. If I put Krennic on a shuttle and put optimized on another ship does that condition grant that ship the ability to take Target Locks?

1: this should go in the rules questions forum.

2: no. The Krennic upgrade gives the ability to take the target lock action, the condition takes effect if the ship with the condition shoots at someone Krennic’s ship has a lock on.

Example: Krennic is on a TIE Reaper. TIE Reaper gains the target lock action. Put the “optimized prototype” condition on a TIE Interceptor. TIE Reaper target locks Wedge. TIE Interceptor shoots at Wedge, TIE Interceptor can resolve Optimized Prototype ability.

Thank you and you are correct, I should have put it on the other forum my bad.

Gosh @Trudem, way to break the forums!
