ENGINEER SHORT SKILL
Optional
Requirements
  • Troopers using this Special Skill must be in Silhouette contact with their target.
Effects

Update PDF 2.1, July 2023

  • Engineer allows recovery of 1 Structure (STR) point, by passing a Normal WIP Roll.
  • This Special Skill can be declared as many times as necessary to recover as many STR points as the target has lost.
  • If the Engineer fails the Normal WIP Roll, the target loses 1 STR point instead of recovering it, entering the Unconscious or Dead State, if applicable.
  • Alternatively, by passing a Normal WIP Roll, a Trooper with Engineer may cancel all of their target's States that can be canceled by this Special Skill except Unconscious (Immobilized-A and B, Targeted, etc.), removing the corresponding State Tokens.
  • Failing the Normal WIP Roll when trying to cancel other states than Unconscious has no negative consequence, and the Roll can be performed again in future Orders.
  • Engineer and Remote Presence:
    • Regardless of which level of Unconscious State the Trooper is in, with a single WIP Roll, they recover lost STR until they have 1 point of STR, and cancel their Unconscious State.

  • Alternatively, by passing a Normal WIP Roll, a Trooper with Engineer may cancel all of their target's States that can be canceled by this Special Skill (Unconscious, Immobilized-A and B, Targeted, etc.), removing the corresponding State Tokens. (See FAQs & Errata. Unconscious cannot be cancelled at the same time as other States.)
  • Failing the Normal WIP Roll when trying to cancel other states than Unconscious has no negative consequence, and the Roll can be performed again in future Orders.
  • Engineer and Remote Presence:
    • Regardless of which level of Unconscious State the Trooper is in, with a single WIP Roll, they recover lost STR until they have 1 point of STR, and cancel their Unconscious State.


FAQs & Errata

N4 FAQ
Version: 1.0, Jan 2021

Q: How do Engineer, GizmoKits, and Unconscious State interact?

A: If a Trooper with STR is in Unconscious State, successful use of a GizmoKit or the Engineer Special Skill on them will restore the Trooper to 1 STR and cancel their Unconscious State. But the Unconscious State would be the only State cancelled by the Engineer, to cancel other States must use another Order.

N4 FAQ
Version: 1.3, Nov 2022

Q: What happens if a Trooper loses and gains points of W/STR or has States inflicted and cancelled simultaneously? For example, if an Engineer cancels a Trooper's IMM-A State at the same time as the Trooper is hit by a Riotstopper.

A: Apply the positive effect to the Trooper first. Then apply the negative effect. For example, make the Engineer's WIP Roll to cancel the Trooper's IMM-A State, then make the PH-6 Saving Roll against the Riotstopper's PARA ammunition. This can result in the original IMM-A State being cancelled and a new State being inflicted.
