SPECIAL RULES
Bounty Hunters are tough, mean and deadly. In
addition, they have unique abilities which are
represented by the following rules.
Capture
If a Bounty Hunter takes an enemy ‘out of action’ in
hand-to-hand fighting the enemy fighter is
automatically captured at the end of the game. Rather
than rolling on the Serious Injury chart after the
game, the fighter is automatically taken captive
regardless of which side won the game or whether
the Bounty Hunter survives.
Claim Bounty
For every enemy fighter captured by the gang roll a
D6. On the roll of a 6 the Bounty Hunter recognises
the fighter as a wanted outlaw. The gang can turn in
the wanted outlaw to the Guilders. Note that the
player doesn’t have to turn in an outlaw, he may still
prefer to ransom the captive back to his own gang.
If an outlaw is turned in for bounty the gang’s share
of the reward is equal to the total points value of the
captive including his weapons and equipment (which
must also be turned over). Add this reward money to
the gang’s income along with income from
territories.
To find out what happens to a gang fighter who is
turned over to the Guilders roll a D6.
1 Sold into Slavery. The fighter disappears forever.
2 Fined his value in credits and equipment
confiscated. His gang may free the fighter by
paying his value in credits including the value of
his weapons and equipment. All of his weapons,
and any equipment that is not physically part of
him (bionics/lobo chip etc) are confiscated by the
Guilders.
3 Fined his value in credits. His gang may free the
fighter together with his weapons and equipment
by paying his fine.
4 Fined D6x10 credits. His gang may free the fighter
by paying his fine as above.
5 Fined or Sentenced. The gang may choose to free
the fighter for D6x5 credits or let him serve his
sentence in the pit, in which case he misses the
next game.
6 Insufficient evidence. Released immediately.
Fines must be paid out of the gang’s stash before the
gang’s next game. If a player is unable or unwilling to
pay the fine the fighter is sold to the slavers. Only in
the case of a ‘Fined or Sentenced’ result does the
gang have the choice of paying or missing a game.
