Teamwork Benefit: Cunning Ambush

From Sourcebook Wiki
Jump to: navigation, search

The team can quickly take advantage of terrain to ambush opponents.

Training

The training for this benefit involves studying common environments, running through ambush scenarios, and devising strategies that take advantage of the terrain. The team must spend a few days in the hills, then in the forest, and then--if possible--in the shifting sands of the desert.

Task Leader Prerequisites

Hide 8 ranks and Listen 8 ranks.

Team Member Prerequisites

Hide 1 rank.

Benefit

If the team members allow the task leader to prepare their hiding positions, he can make a special Hide check to camouflage them. This check is modified by each team member's armor check penalty and Dexterity rather than the task leader's, and the camouflage effect lasts until the team member moves. Hiding a team member in this manner requires 10 minutes of work.
