Effects

Update PDF 2.1, July 2023

  • During the Turn's Tactical Phase, the player will place an Impetuous Token next to every Trooper with this Special Skill. This Token will be removed when the Trooper is activated, or at the end of the Impetuous Phase for any Trooper that has not been activated.
  • During the Turn’s Impetuous Phase, the player may activate each Impetuous Trooper once, without spending an Order. However, removing the Impetuous Token to activate the Trooper counts as spending an Order on them, applying the Order Expenditure Sequence normally.
  • Impetuous activations only allow a fixed set of Skill combinations:
  • In the Impetuous Phase, when declaring Move, Jump, or Climb, the Trooper must always move the full corresponding MOV value, attempting to perform the first of these options that the Trooper can complete:
    • Enter Silhouette contact with an Enemy Trooper during this move.
    • Go towards the Enemy Deployment Zone without doubling back from the movement's starting position, applying the following priorities:
      • 1. Use their complete MOV value.
      • 2. End their movement as far as possible from their starting point.
      • 3. End their movement as close as possible to the enemy Deployment Zone.
