This N4 rule is not used in CodeOne.

The user of this Special Skill has received special training with a focus on silent movement, the art of remaining undetected, and the capacity to strike an unsuspecting enemy with unrelenting close combat attacks from out of the blue.

STEALTH AUTOMATIC SKILL
CC Special Skill, Optional.
Requirements
  • The user of this Special Skill must be in his Active Turn.
Effects
  • The user can declare Cautious Movement inside the Zone of Control of enemy Models and Markers.
  • If the user declares a Short Movement Skill or Cautious Movement within the Zone of Control of one or more enemies and stays outside their LoF, he does not grant AROs to those enemies.
  • However, if the second Short Skill of the Order is any non-Movement Skill, then those enemies can react normally in ARO.
  • If the Movement of the Trooper with Stealth ends in Silhouette contact with an enemy who had no LoF against them and declares any non-Movement Short Skill, then the enemy can only declare CC Attack, Dodge, Reset, or those Skills that can be used in Engaged State.
  • This CC Special Skill can be declared without being in Silhouette contact with an enemy.


IMPORTANT

Stealth is not effective against Deployable Weapons, or against Troopers with the Sixth Sense Special Skill.
