Chain Snares
Whenever an enemy operative would perform the Fall Back action while within control range of a friendly TRUEBORN operative, if no other enemy operatives are within that friendly operative’s control range, you can use this rule. If you do, roll two D6, or one D6 if that enemy operative has a higher Wounds stat than that friendly operative. If any result is a 4+, that enemy operative cannot perform that action during that activation or counteraction (no AP are spent on it).
Phantasm Grenades
Once per Turning point, when an operative is shooting a friendly TRUEBORN operative more than 3" from it, at the start of the Roll Defence Dice step, you can use this rule. If you do, worsen the X of the piercing weapon rule by 1 (If any) until the end of that sequence. Note that Piercing 1 would therefore be ignored.
Portable Shadowfields
Whenever an operative is shooting a friendly TRUEBORN operative, if the ranged weapon in that sequence has the Blast or Torrent weapon rule, you can re-roll one of your defence dice. In addition, friendly TRUEBORN operatives are not affected by the X" Devastating X weapon rule (i.e, Devastating with a distance) unless they are the target during that sequence.
Soul-Gem Trophies
Once per turning point, when a friendly TRUEBORN operative is shooting, fighting or retaliating, if you roll two or more fails, you can discard one of them to retain another as a normal success instead.
Ploys
Devious Scheme

Prey On the Wounded
Firefight PloyUse this firefight ploy after rolling your attack dice for a friendly TRUEBORN operative, if it’s shooting against or fighting against a wounded enemy operative. You can re-roll any of your attack dice.
Cruel Deception

From Darkness, Death
Strategy PloyWhenever a friendly TRUEBORN operative is activated, before you determine its order, you can select one enemy operative that friendly operative isn’t a valid target for.
