Each friendly HUNTER CLADE RANGER operative that has a Conceal order and is more than 6" from enemy operatives can immediately perform a free Dash action in an order of your choice. You cannot use this ploy during the first turning point.
During each friendly HUNTER CLADE RUSTSTALKER operative’s activation, it can perform two Fight actions, and one of them can be free.
Whenever an enemy operative within 6" of a friendly HUNTER CLADE INFILTRATOR operative is shooting, fighting or retaliating, your opponent cannot re-roll their attack dice
Whenever an enemy operative is shooting against, fighting against or retaliating against a friendly HUNTER CLADE VANGUARD operative, if that enemy operative is under the effects of the Rad-Saturation rule (see VANGUARD operatives), subtract 1 from the Normal Dmg stat of its weapons (to a minimum of 3).
Use this firefight ploy during a friendly HUNTER CLADE operative’s activation. Alternatively, use it when an enemy operative is shooting a friendly HUNTER CLADE operative, at the end of the Roll Attack Dice step. Until the Ready step of the next Strategy phase, that friendly operative has an additional rule determined by its current DOCTRINA IMPERATIVE as follows:
Note that you can use this ploy after rolling attack or defence dice for this operative, or before or after retaining or re-rolling those dice.
Use this firefight ploy when a friendly HUNTER CLADE INFILTRATOR operative is activated. Alternatively, use this firefight ploy when a friendly HUNTER CLADE INFILTRATOR operative, or an enemy operative within 3" of that friendly operative, would perform the Pick Up Marker or a mission action (excluding Operate Hatch). Until the start of that friendly operative’s next activation, whenever determining control of a marker, treat the total APL stat of enemy operatives that contest it as 1 lower if at least one of those enemy operatives is within 3" of that friendly operative. Note this isn’t a change to the APL stat, so any changes are cumulative with this, and this can change control of a marker before performing the action.
Use this firefight ploy when it’s your turn to activate a friendly operative. Select one friendly HUNTER CLADE LEADER operative and one other ready friendly HUNTER CLADE operative visible to and within 3" of that LEADER operative; activate one of them as normal. When that first friendly operative you activate is expended, you can activate the other friendly operative before your opponent activates. When that other operative is expended, your opponent then activates as normal. Whenever you use this ploy, you cannot select more than one HUNTER CLADE SICARIAN operative.
Use this firefight ploy when you activate a friendly HUNTER CLADE operative. Select a DOCTRINA IMPERATIVE for that operative to have instead of its current one (if any) until the Ready step of the next Strategy phase.
The following equipment options are available to HUNTER CLADE kill teams, alongside the universal equipment online. You cannot select each option more than once per battle.
Once per turning point, when a friendly HUNTER CLADE operative is activated, if it’s not within control range of enemy operatives, you can use this rule. If you do, that friendly operative regains up to D3+2 lost wounds.
Once per turning point, when an operative is shooting a friendly HUNTER CLADE operative, at the start of the Roll Defence Dice step, you can use this rule. If you do, worsen the x of the Piercing weapon rule by 1 (if any) until the end of that sequence. Note that Piercing 1 would therefore be ignored.
Once per battle, you can use the Control Edict firefight ploy for 0CP, but instead of activating the selected friendly operatives in succession, activate them at the same time. Complete their activations action by action in any order.
Once per battle STRATEGIC GAMBIT in any turning point after the first. Select one objective marker or your opponent’s drop zone. Roll one D6 separately for each enemy operative within control range of that selected objective marker or within that drop zone, and subtract 1 if any part of that enemy operative's base is underneath Vantage terrain: on a 4+, subtract 1 from that operative's APL stat until the end of its next activation; on a 6, also inflict D3 damage on it (roll separately for each).
At the end of the Select Operatives step, select one DOCTRINA IMPERATIVE to be a Primary Mode for your kill team until the end of the battle (note that selecting a Primary Mode doesn’t automatically give you the effects of that DOCTRINA IMPERATIVE for the battle; you must still select it as a STRATEGIC GAMBIT, as below).
STRATEGIC GAMBIT. Select one DOCTRINA IMPERATIVE for friendly HUNTER CLADE operatives to have until the Ready step of the next Strategy phase. Each DOCTRINA IMPERATIVE has both an Optimisation and a Deprecation rule. Both are in effect while your kill team has that DOCTRINA IMPERATIVE. Once per battle, when you select the DOCTRINA IMPERATIVE that’s your kill team’s Primary Mode, you can ignore its Deprecation rule.
Optimisation: Friendly HUNTER CLADE operatives’ ranged weapons have the Ceaseless weapon rule.
Deprecation: Worsen the Hit stat of friendly HUNTER CLADE operatives’ melee weapons by 1. This isn’t cumulative with being injured.
Optimisation: Friendly HUNTER CLADE operatives’ melee weapons have the Ceaseless weapon rule.
Deprecation: Worsen the Hit stat of friendly HUNTER CLADE operatives’ ranged weapons by 1. This isn’t cumulative with being injured.
Optimisation: Normal Dmg of 3 or more inflicts 1 less damage on friendly HUNTER CLADE operatives.
Deprecation: Subtract 1" from the Move stat of friendly HUNTER CLADE operatives.
Optimisation: Add 1" to the Move stat of friendly HUNTER CLADE operatives.
Deprecation: Worsen the Save stat of friendly HUNTER CLADE operatives by 1.
Optimisation: None.
Deprecation: None.
