Bounty Hunters

All Bounty Hunters (unnamed and Dramatis Personae) have the following special rules:

Dead, Not Alive

Any gang, Outlaw or otherwise, that employs a Bounty Hunter may claim a reward from the authorities for troublesome enemies they bring in dead. During the post-battle sequence, when an opponent deletes a dead fighter from their roster, the gang that hired the Bounty Hunter immediately claims half of that fighter’s value, rounded up to the nearest 5 credits, as a reward.

Claiming Bounties

Any gang, Outlaw or otherwise, that employs a Bounty Hunter may claim a reward from the authorities for enemy fighters they help to Capture. If during the Wrap-up the recruiting gang captures an enemy fighter, roll a D6 in the Receive Rewards step of the post-battle sequence. On the roll of a 3 or higher, the Bounty Hunter recognises the Captive as a particularly wanted individual. The gang is given their cut of the reward for keeping this dangerous miscreant off the streets, immediately receiving D6x10 credits.

“We’ll Get Our Bit…”

If a Bounty Hunter does not generate additional income during a campaign battle via the Dead, Not Alive or Claiming Bounties special rules, there is a strong chance they will stick around until they do, whether the gang wants them to or not:

• If, at the end of the Update Roster step of the post-battle sequence, only one of the Dead, Not Alive or Claiming Bounties special rules has been used, roll a D6. If the result is a 4 or higher, the Bounty Hunter is dissatisfied with their earnings and is available for the recruiting gang’s next battle for free. If the result is a 1-3, they take their credits and leave.
• If neither the Dead, Not Alive or Claiming Bounties special rules are used, there is no need to roll and the Bounty Hunter is automatically available for the recruiting gang’s next battle for free.
• If, however, both the Dead, Not Alive and Claiming Bounties special rules are used during the post-battle sequence, the Bounty Hunter, happy with their payment, automatically leaves.
• If a Bounty Hunter that is available for the next battle for free in this way is not used, they will automatically leave. In other words, they must be used in the next battle, or be lost.
• If a Bounty Hunter is taken Out of Action during a campaign battle, they are considered to have automatically rolled a result of 12-26 Out Cold on the Lasting Injuries table.

80 credits

0-1 Bounty Hunters

A gang can recruit no more than one Bounty Hunter at a time. To represent the great variety of Bounty Hunters active on Necromunda, the recruiting player chooses one of the following profiles to use:

M	WS	BS	S	T	W	I	A	Ld	Cl	Wil	Int
5”	3+	3+	3	3	2	3+	1	7+	5+	6+	6+
3”	3+	4+	3	4	2	5+	1	5+	7+	5+	5+
4”	3+	4+	3	4	1	4+	2	7+	6+	7+	8+

Special Rules: Outlaw, “You Get What You Pay For”, Dead, Not Alive, Claiming Bounties, “We’ll Get Our Bit…”.

Special Rules

Outlaw: A Bounty Hunter hired by an Outlaw gang is automatically an Outlaw themselves. In addition to the equipment options listed opposite, Outlaw Bounty Hunters may purchase Common items and any item with a Rare or Illegal value of 10 or below from the Black Market.

“You Get What You Pay For”: Unlike other fighters, Bounty Hunters are not counted during the Choose Crew step of the pre-battle sequence. Instead, at the end of this step, any Bounty Hunters available to the gang may be added to the crew, regardless of the Crew Selection method in use. This may take the number of fighters in a starting crew above the number specified by the scenario.

Skills

A Bounty Hunter may take either three skills determined at random, or one skill determined at random and one skill chosen by the recruiting player. Each skill is chosen from the following skill sets: Agility, Brawn, Combat, Cunning, Ferocity, or Shooting. To determine a random skill, the player declares which skill set they are generating the skill from, and rolls a D6, re-rolling if the Bounty Hunter already has that skill. Choosing a skill is a simple matter of picking the desired skill from the sets available.

Equipment

In addition to their hiring fee, a Bounty Hunter may purchase up to 150 credits worth of weapons and Wargear from your gang's equipment list and from the Trading Post (note that, in addition, Outlaw Bounty Hunters may purchase items from the Black Market, as described previously). They may be armed with up to five weapons, only one of which may have the Unwieldy trait. A weapon with the Unwieldy trait counts as two weapons choices. Note that the value of these weapons and Wargear should be included when determining Gang Rating.

Hunter for Hire

Urson Grimjarl is a Bounty Hunter that may be hired by any Law-abiding gang. As such, he is subject to the “You Get What You Pay For”, Dead, Not Alive, Claiming Bounties and “We’ll Get Our Bit…” special rules.

Oculi Command

When Urson Grimjarl is deployed on the battlefield, a Techmite Oculi is also deployed within 3" of him. If, during his activation, there are no Techmite Oculi on the battlefield, Urson Grimjarl may perform the Deploy Oculi (Double) action:

• Deploy Oculi (Double): Place a Techmite Oculi in base contact of Urson Grimjarl.

Flight

A Techmite Oculi ignores all terrain, may move freely between levels without restriction, and can never fall. It may not, however, ignore impassable terrain and may not end its movement with its base overlapping an obstacle or another fighter’s base.

Target Paint

Whilst a Techmite Oculi is within 6" of an enemy model, Urson Grimjarl reduces any negative to hit modifiers due to cover by 1.

Scout Drone

Techmite Oculi can range further from Urson Grimjarl than most Exotic Beasts. Techmite Oculi must remain within 18" of Urson Grimjarl rather than 3".

Special Rules

Master of Cyberteknika: When hired, Von Buren may choose any three items of Cyberteknika worth up to 200 credits in total to be equipped with. This does not cost any credits and does not increase the fighter’s value.

Heart of Iron: Should Von Buren suffer a hit from a weapon with the Rad-phage trait, roll an additional D6 as normal. However, on a roll of 3 or higher, he does not suffer an additional Flesh Wound. Instead, Von Buren may discard a Flesh Wound he has already suffered. In addition, the Heart of Iron grants any ranged weapon carried by Von Buren that has the Rad-phage trait the Plentiful trait as well.

Van Saar Archeotek: Von Buren is a Bounty Hunter that can only be hired by House Van Saar gangs. He is subject to the “You Get What You Pay For”, Dead, Not Alive, Claiming Bounties and “We’ll Get Our Bit…” special rules.

Arachno-Cybertiknika Savant: Lisbeth ignores any negative Movement modifiers caused by moving through difficult terrain and adds 2" to her Movement when moving vertically (for example, when climbing up a ladder or other vertical surface). In addition, she may re-roll failed Initiative checks to see if she falls when she goes from Standing to Prone within 1/2" of the edge of a level or platform. Should Lisbeth ever fall, half the distance (rounding fractions up) for the purposes of determining the Strength, AP and Damage of the hit she suffers.

House Van Saar Bounty Hunter: Lisbeth the Iron Angel is a Bounty Hunter that can only be hired by House Van Saar gangs. She is subject to the “You Get What You Pay For”, Dead, Not Alive, Claiming Bounties and “We’ll Get Our Bit…” special rules.

Lore

If style were a man then it would undoubtedly be Kal Jericho. With easy good looks and an even easier charm, Kal has a reputation for being as fast with his mouth as he is with his guns, the former getting him into trouble as often as the latter gets him out of it. A legend in his own lifetime, the self-proclaimed suavest Bounty Hunter in the underhive has claimed more bounties and made more enemies than almost any other hired gun in Hive Primus. Kal might attribute his success to being possessed of peerless skills and a survivor’s instinct for trouble, though ask his adversaries and they’ll tell you Kal leads a charmed life.

Somehow since making his way into the underhive, Kal has gotten out of more scrapes than Lord Helmawr has wigs, each one more impressive than the last (a bit like Lord Helmawr’s wigs). No one knows for sure where Kal comes from, or why someone of his obvious good breeding, education and upstanding personal hygiene decided to make the rotting underbelly of Hive Primus as his home, but there is no shortage of tales told about him. Common wisdom has it that Kal is an exiled noble or off-world adventurer, fleeing from some dark past. Some claim he is a planetary lord in exile, come to Necromunda to hide from his crimes, others say he was once a great hero of the Imperium, betrayed and exiled from his command. Then there are those who posit that Kal is an illegitimate son of Lord Helmawr, and the last true-born successor to the Helmawr line. Of course, he could just as easily be another hive scum with an exceptional talent for lying.

What isn’t in dispute is that Kal has no shortage of powerful enemies. From the psychopathic ex-pit slave, Vandal Feg; the fanatical Redemptionist, Cardinal Crimson; or the shadowy spymaster, Nemo the Faceless, there is a long line of Necromunda’s baddest and meanest looking to claim the Bounty Hunter’s head. Of course, Kal is not without his friends, like his trusty half-Ratskin sidekick Scabs or robotic mastiff, Wotan. Then there are those like the rogue noble-woman-turned-outlaw, Yolanda Catallus, who enjoys an off-again on-again relationship with Kal, sometimes fighting at his side, other times trying to put a bullet between his eyes. All of these reasons are doubtless why Kal prefers the lawless settlements and shadowy Badzones of the underhive, where there is always coin to be made and he can stay one step ahead of his adversaries.

Lore

Life is hard in the underhive, and even more so for Houseless drifters like Scabs. A product of two worlds, Scabs carries his Ratskin heritage both as a blessing and a curse. Most ‘civilised’ underhivers view the boil-covered scum as a Badzones savage and an outlander, never fully accepting him into their settlements and holesteads. This is probably why Scabs turned to a violent life as a hired gun and wastelands guide to make creds, and also why when he fell in with Kal Jericho he returned the Bounty Hunter’s easy acceptance with unfailing loyalty. Kal saw in Scabs something the scum had never seen in himself; a talented scout with a keen eye for danger and a good heart. Over the years, Scabs has proven his worth to Kal time and time again, the scum’s level-headed pragmatism tempering his master’s bon vivant attitude with a healthy dose of caution, often saving the pair from sump-spawned horrors and humourless gangers among countless other perilous situations.

Of course, as Scabs’ own reputation has grown, he has had many of his own adventures – especially during those periods when Kal mysteriously disappears uphive or even further afield for weeks or months at a time. Either alone or in the company of other gangs or hired guns, Scabs has proven he can hold his own. Scabs’ Ratskin blood might make him an outcast in most underhivers’ eyes but it gives him a connection to the hive he has used to his advantage numerous times – his ‘nose’ finding paths through seemingly impassable Badzones or tracking foes across the shifting wastes of hive bottom. And when Kal isn’t around, Scabs sometimes even teams up with Yolanda Catallus, perhaps because she feels sorry for the half-Ratskin, or maybe she is just looking for an in with Kal – or another chance to put a blade between his ribs!
