Bodyguard: If an adjacent allied character would take damage from an attack, a Bodyguard character can take the damage instead, even if it is not a legal target for the attacker. A Bodyguard character can't use this special ability when an adjacent ally takes damage from something other than an attack, such as Grenades. If the original target has the Shields special ability, you must decide whether a Bodyguard character will take the damage before the original target rolls for Shields. A special ability whose name includes Bodyguard (such as Emperor's Bodyguard) is treated as the Bodyguard ability for all purposes except as noted on the stat card.

Careful Shot +[#]: On its turn, if this character doesn't move any distance, it gets a +[#] bonus to Attack. Since this special ability works only on the character's turn, it doesn't help with attacks of opportunity.

Cleave: Once per turn, if this character defeats an adjacent enemy by making an attack, it can make an immediate attack against another adjacent enemy. Cleave works even when the character is making an attack of opportunity.

Double Attack: On its turn, if this character attacks without moving first, it then has the option either to move normally or to make an extra attack. The extra attack can be against the same enemy as the original attack, but it doesn't have to be. Since this special ability works only on its turn, this character still makes only a single attack when making an attack of opportunity.

Double Claw Attack: This works just like Double Attack, except that both attacks must be made only against adjacent enemies. A character who has Double Claw Attack can make two attacks against adjacent enemies or a single attack against distant enemies.

Draw Fire: If an enemy targets an ally within 6 squares of this character, you can force that enemy to target this character instead (provided that enemy can choose this character as a target). The attacker can resist this effect with a save of 11. You must decide whether to use this ability before the attacker makes the attack roll.

(Anon): This ability is also granted through the Special Ability of Droid Mark.
(Boba52): Draw fire does not change any normal targeting rules. The first target as well as the target with draw fire must be legal targets for the attack at the time of the attack in order to use Draw fire.

Flight: This character ignores enemy characters, low objects, difficult terrain, and pits when moving. Walls still block its movement, and it must still end its move in a legal space. Because this character ignores enemies, they cannot make attacks of opportunity against it.

Fringe Reinforcements [#]: During setup, after seeing your opponent's squad, you can add up to [#] points Fringe characters to your squad. These characters don't count toward the cost of your squad, and your opponent doesn't have to defeat them to win the skirmish. If you are scoring points for defeats, or in a tiebreaker, defeating these extra characters doesn't score points.

Characters
  • Jabba the Hutt (Fringe, Rebel Storm) {Fringe Reinforcements 30}
  • Lobot (Fringe, Universe) {Fringe Reinforcements 20}

Grenades [#]: Instead of making its normal attack or attacks, this character can target an enemy up to 6 squares away. This follows all the usual rules for choosing a target. The target and all characters adjacent to it (enemies and allies alike) take [#] points of damage. Each character can avoid the damage with a save of 11. Using this special ability is not an attack and does not require an attack roll. You cannot target an empty square with Grenades.
