  1. Ghost: Jumper Z “Requirements: Only those Remotes (REM) that are in a Fireteam and are in the same Combat Group as the trooper with this Special Skill can benefit from the ACTIVE PROXY LZ Marker. » A trooper cannot benefit from a Supportware program and from this Special Skill at the same time. » Each trooper with G: Jumper LZ can have a maximum of one ACTIVE PROXY LZ Marker on the table. Effects: This Special Skill allows the user to place an ACTIVE PROXY LZ Marker next to a Fireteam that is in the same Combat Group and contains Remotes (REM). The player will place the Marker next to the appropriate Team Leader Marker, during the Deployment Phase, when placing the G: Jumper LZ trooper on the table. » In both Active Turn and in Reactive Turns, each time that the player activates a Remote (REM) that is in a Fireteam with an ACTIVE PROXY LZ Marker, that Remote replaces the values of its CC, BS and WIP Attributes from its Trooper Profile with the ones from the G: Jumper LZ trooper. » Although, in the Reactive Turn, when an Order is declared within the LoF or ZoC of several Remotes in the same Fireteam, only one of them will benefit from the ACTIVE PROXY LZ Marker, chosen when declaring their ARO. » All Remotes in a Fireteam with the ACTIVE PROXY LZ Marker also gain the Number 2 Special Skill.” Wow, that is a lot of information to digest. What the heck does it all mean? As simply as possible, the skill allows the player to boost the effectiveness of remotes. Yes, there are restrictions. The remotes must be in fire teams and in the same combat group and cannot be further buffed by supportware. Why do it? Isn’t Supportware a better choice? Against units in cover or units with Dogged or No Wound Incapacity, yes supportware is better. Against Frenzied and Impetuous Troops, Ghost: Jumper Z is better. Ghost: Jumper Z has other advantages. First, Support Ware is placed on one model. Ghost: Jumper Z is placed on an entire Fireteam. So instead of a Deva Hacker boosting an HMG Dakini, an Aspara can lend its CC, BS, and WIP to any of the Dakinis in a Fireteam. Yes, only one model can benefit from the buff, but the player can choose. Second, since the Marker is placed in the deployment phase, it is free and does not cost and initial order. Third, the skill allows the Fireteam remotes to gain the Number 2 skill. Number 2 keeps Fire teams from breaking and helps the player conserve Command Tokens. Finally, if a model with Ghost: Jumper Z goes down, it’s order can be preserved in a Netrod! That seems like a win to me. I am tempted to give the rule a try.

  5. It is beautiful and a rare piece of art. I would never sell it.
