Versatility

Whenever the Arch-Militant uses an attack that is of a different type from their previous attack, the Arch-Militant gains a stack of Versatility. The types of attacks can be single shot, single melee attack, area melee attack, area shot, or burst shot.

The Arch-Militant gains +5 WS and BS for every stack of Versatility.

If the Arch-Militant has 4 or more stacks of Versatility, the Arch-Militant deals an additional +(WS bonus / 2) or +(BS bonus / 2) damage, whichever is highest.

Reckless Rush

The Arch-Militant immediately gains +(3 + Arch-Militant's AGI bonus) MP.

If the Arch-Militant has stacks of Versatility, those stacks are doubled until the end of turn, but the Arch-Militant loses all stacks that were added at the end of the turn.

Cautious Approach

The Arch-Militant gains the cautious approach effect until the end of combat, or until this ability is used again, or until using Confident Approach. Instead of the usual bonuses from Versatility, the Arch-Militant gains +5% dodge and parry for every stack.

If the Arch-Militant already has 4 or more stacks of Versatility, the Arch-Militant removes all slowed, blinded, bleeding, burning, and toxin effects from themselves and becomes immune to these effects, as well as stun and prone, for as long as the Arch-Militant keeps the cautious approach effect active.

Kick

The Arch-Militant makes a melee attack with a kick, dealing (TGH bonus + STR bonus) damage instead of weapon damage. This attack does not count toward the attack limit per turn and counts as a single melee attack for the purposes of Versatility.

This attack cannot be parried and will push the target 2 cells away.

Devastating Attack

The Arch-Militant's next attack, if it hit, will cause all the targets to make a Toughness resistance test with a −(2 × Arch-Militant's BS bonus or WS bonus, whichever is higher) penalty. If failed, the targets will suffer a negative effect based on the attack's damage type:

Impact damage knocks the target prone for 1 round.

Piercing and rending damage inflict bleeding and slowed on the target until the end of combat.

Energy and all other damage inflict blinded on the target until the end of combat.

Power swords and power axes count as both energy and rending, while power hammers count as both energy and impact. Attacks that combine several types of damage will benefit from each additional effect.

Wildfire

The Arch-Militant's next attack will cost 0 AP, will not count toward the attack limit this turn, and will grant a stack of Versatility even if the attack type is the same as the last attack.

The cost of this ability is reduced by −1 for every 4 stacks of Versatility.

Confident Approach

The Arch-Militant gains the confident approach effect until the end of combat, or until this ability is used again, or until using Cautious Approach. Instead of the usual bonuses from Versatility, the Arch-Militant gains +5% dodge reduction and parry reduction and ignores 5% of enemy cover for every stack.

All the Arch-Militant's attacks score critical hits, but the Arch-Militant's critical damage for those attacks is modified by −(50 − (critical hit chance / 2))%.

If the Arch-Militant already has 4 or more stacks of Versatility, the Arch-Militant's attacks always deal maximum damage, as long as the Arch-Militant keeps the confident approach effect active.

HEROIC ACT:

Steady Superiority

Until the end of combat, the Arch-Militant can make one additional attack each turn (including one additional attack on the turn this heroic act was used). The first attack after using this ability and each turn afterwards costs 0 AP.

DESPERATE MEASURE:

Heroic Sacrifice

Until the end of combat, the Arch-Militant can make one additional attack each turn (including one additional attack on the turn this desperate measure was used). The first attack after using this ability and each turn afterwards costs 0 AP.

The Arch-Militant suffers a −30 penalty to their Toughness until the end of combat and suffers bleeding.

Bleeding: this creature is bleeding and suffers 10% of their maximum wounds damage at the start of its turn. The effect can be removed by any source of healing.
