Do you choose a target for a charge before Lannister Justice Resolves?

[Aeron Greyjoy]

If a unit of redcloaks declares a charge as it's action, do you choose the target of the charge before Lannister Justice resolves?

If so, what happens if the target dies and you can no longer successfully make contact?

you execute a failed charge

 

[CMON Michael Shinall]

you execute a failed charge

As stated above, this would result in a Failed Charge. The target for a Charge must be determined when the Charge Action is declared (as there must be a legal target to declare the Action).

 

[Getsugen]

What about if you can make contact with a different unit, not the target of the charge? Would you charge but be unable to make an attack on the other contacted enemy? The engaging multiple enemies rules say that other contacted enemies besides the target become engaged. Or is it because it’s a failed charge you would have to stop 1” away regardless.
