Aurra Sing Star Wars Shatterpoint Rules

Both Aurra Sing and her Bounty Hunter peers prove quite flexibile as guns for hire thanks to sharing the Payday Reactive ability, which lets them temporarily gain a tag of an ally. Thus paid, they can briefly be treated as members of the same organization. Given many abilities are only effective on specific tags, this ability opens up a wide range of potential combat benefits, letting these bounty hunters fight ably for any side of a given conflict.

One reason Aurra Sing doesn’t mind teaming up is the fact that those joining her can serve as an Expendable Distraction, occupying the enemy and making themselves even easier to be hit and killed. Gaining 3 dice on her attacks is quite a strong bonus, and it seems a small price to pay if the engaging allies get slightly winged by the blaster bolt grazing them in the process. Making such a shot allows Sing to utilize her other Reactive abilities, with sufficient Force tokens. Hit and Run is quite useful, allowing her to immediately Reposition, while Double the Contract, Double the Payout gives her a free 5-dice attack against a secondary target.

Wow, Payday seems like a really fun ability. Being able to get the tag of a squadmate, at the price of one force seems pretty cool. That’ll open up the possibility for a lot of unique teams and interactions!

Her Stance reflects her independent attitude, as she is Not Asking Permission to attack, using her custom sniper rifle at range, or drawing blaster pistols at point blank range. Sing is certainly considerably more deadly when firing the rifle, but is not too shabby in melee, when forced to fight while engaged. Her Combat Tree is a strong one, and she’s likely to progress to its higher Options if benefitting from the added dice from Expendable Distraction. In addition to substantial damage, this Combat Tree offers the chance to Pin, Strain, perform up to two Pushes, and Expose the foe, as well as possibly allowing her to Climb or Reposition after. The Dexterous Dodge Defense expertise chart also offers decent defensive protection.

Though Aurra Sing’s mercenary nature allows her to fight alongside just about anyone, she often prefers to join other Bounty Hunters. This might include those drawn from Cad Bane’s crew, like the Chandra-Fan Troo-Tril-Tek and others.

Aurra Sing’s Combat Tree makes her great for utility and mobility and also piles on damage in every option slot except for one. Turning crits to breaks by default is also very cool for her defense capabilities.

The Bounty Hunters Star Wars Shatterpoint Rules

Any Bounty Hunter worth their guild membership is always On the Trail of their quarry and is constantly on the move. They know the importance of using proper gear, demonstrated by Tools of the Trade. This Active ability lets them employ their specialized hardware to Disarm a nearby foe and gain the benefit of Sharpshooter 2 and Impact 2 to augment focus actions either for melee or ranged attacks. Under these benefits their offensive capability is considerable augmented.

The abilities of the Bounty Hunters not only seem very flavorful but also quite good. Sharpshooter 2 and Impact 2 for one force means these guys can still pack a punch for support characters.

As their Hunting Season Stance demonstrates, while they slightly prefer firing blasters, Bounty Hunters are essentially as good in melee as at range. The Ranged and Melee Expertise Charts for this Stance are modest, and its Combat Tree relatively simple, but offers decent damage, as well as options to Shove, Pin, or Expose the foe.

The Bounty Hunters Combat Tree seems all-around well-balanced, with a bit of utility sprinkled in. It seems like they could be dropped in any situation and still be relatively capable.

To end things off, these units are dropping in the Clone Wars Era, and need at least 9 squad points on your primary unit in order to throw these two units in there, which is important for squad building.
