Under certain circumstances, Troopers can declare this Common Skill to move about the battlefield without attracting enemy AROs.

CAUTIOUS MOVEMENT
LONG SKILL
EFFECTS
  • Allows the Trooper to move up to the first value of his MOV Attribute, generating no enemy AROs in the process.
  • Restriction. For this Cautious Movement to generate no AROs, it must begin and end at two points on the game table that lie outside the LoF and ZoC of all enemy Models and Markers.
  • If the Cautious Movement begins or ends within the LoF or ZoC of any enemy Trooper (in Model form) or Marker, the Trooper generates AROs as usual.
  • Restriction. For the Cautious Movement of a Hackable Trooper in Model form to generate no AROs, it must also begin and end at two points on the game table that lie outside the Hacking Area of any enemy Hackers.
  • If a Hackable Trooper is in Model form and its Cautious Movement begins or ends inside the Hacking Area of any enemy Hackers, the Trooper generates AROs as usual.
    If a non-Hackable Trooper is in Model form and its Cautious Movement begins or ends inside the Hacking Area of any enemy Hackers, this does not cause the Trooper to generate AROs.
  • Cautious Movement must follow the General Movement Rules as well as the Moving and Measuring rules.


IMPORTANT

This Common Skill cannot be declared by TAGs, Remotes, Vehicles, Troopers with Motorcycles, Troopers with the Aerial Special Skill, or Troopers in Targeted State.


REMEMBER

Troopers in Hidden Deployment are neither Models nor Markers, so they cannot react to a Cautious Movement by having LoF or being in ZoC.


Cautious Movement Example

A PanOceanian Trooper in Model form intends to close in on a Nomad Trooper. Since the Trooper is in Total Cover behind a tall building, outside the LoF and ZoC of the Nomad Troopers and an enemy Camouflage Marker, the PanOceanian Trooper uses part of their first MOV value to move behind a container where they will also be outside the LoF and ZoC of the Nomad Troopers and the Camouflage Marker.

No Nomad Troopers, including the Camouflage Marker, can declare AROs, since the PanOceanian Trooper's Movement begins and ends outside their LoF and ZoC.
