Patch 2026.10.20c — Messiah, Armed
Characters
Hope
- New: Crouching Shot (free, Speed 4, Damage 4, Perception, Piercing, Reach 6, Tech). A rifle shot from a crouch: Aerial attacks pass over her, yet it hits airborne targets for +2 Damage, knocks them down and shoots a flyer out of the sky.
- New: Frag Grenade (1 Stamina, Speed 3, Damage 3, Agility, Concussive, Burst 1 within Reach 5, Tech). Everyone caught is pushed 1 hex out from the blast.
- New: Stoke (free, Speed 6, Reach 4). A fellow mutant's next card gets +2 Damage and +2 Speed.
- New perk, Take Cover: sharing a hex with someone she is not grappling, single-target attacks on her hit them instead. Sharing it with an obstacle, the obstacle takes the hit: a crate breaks at once, an oil drum after 2 hits, a car after 3.
