Giant Killers

The underdog got something to prove, hoping to bloody the nose of a stronger gang and not get too smashed about in the process.

The attacker receives bonuses depending on the difference in gang rating (all are cumulative):

0-100:

• Does not need to make Bottle tests.

101-250:

• The Leader can ignore the effects of Flesh Wounds.
• From the second round and onwards, at least one action must be Shoot or Fight. If neither actions can be made, the Leader can only take a single action during the activation.

251-500:

• Fighters can re-roll one Injury dice when injuring enemy fighters.
• When making Recovery tests, the an extra Injury dice must be rolled, apply Out of Action if any dice rolled this result.

500+:

• Automatically pass any Cool tests.
