Common rules
-
Mettle
This unit does not count as being Wounded by a failed Grit Check and instead receives the Disordered Condition (even if not normally able to be Disordered or if the hit would cause them to become Disordered anyway). If the unit is already Disordered, it is Wounded as normal.
-
Target priority
This unit may only be targeted by a Shoot Action if they are the closest enemy unit in Line of Sight or if they are within 12” and Line of Sight.
-
The Quick and the Dead
Once per turn, unless Hunkered, this unit may declare they will use this rule against an enemy model’s Combat Action that declares them as the Initial Target (but before dice are rolled). This unit must make a Quick Check. Should they pass the Quick Check, all hits from that model’s Action against this unit are ignored and this unit becomes Hunkered. If this unit fails the Quick Check, then they are hit as normal. You may not use this rule against hits using Blast or Torrent templates.

Special rules
-
When this unit fails a Grit Check, you can pick a friendly model within 3" of this unit to fail their Grit Check instead as they are pulled in front at the last minute, ignorantly sacrificing themselves in the process. Models affected by Meat Shields cannot benefit from the Sawbones Special Rule.
-
This ability costs a Fortune Chip and may be used by this unit once per turn when a CONSTRUCT Face, Hands or Support unit within 6" is destroyed. Before Taint Checks are made, d5 of the models from the destroyed unit are returned to the Play Area within 3" of this unit. Any model that cannot be placed is removed from play. The new unit counts as having Activated for the turn and gains the Reanimated rule. This cannot be used agains units that are removed from play due to Yeller Checks.
-
This unit's Posse may include a unit of K9 AUTOMATA for the appropiate points cost. These are considered to occupy the same posse slot as this unit. For one Action Point this unit may nominate an enemy unit within 18". Any friendly K9 AUTOMATA unit may Focus their Shoot and Strike Actions this turn against that nominated unit, even if they are not within 12" of a friendly Boss. At the end of this unit's Activation, a unit of K9 AUTOMATA within 3" gains the Teamwork rule for that turn.
-
For two Action Points this unit may target an AUTOMATA unit within 5" once per turn. That targeted unit must make a Mind Check. If the Check is passed, nothing happens. If the Check fails, the selected unit is Compelled and must inmediately make and Action of this unit's choice. The Action counts as a Free Action and cannot be Focused.
