M5.15. Assassination

Someone on the other crew has a price on their head. The contract is specific: one target, no collateral billing. Find them in the chaos.

After deployment, each player secretly writes down one opposing model as their target. Do not reveal targets until one is taken Out of Action or Flees. You cannot choose a model that is not on the board.

If both targets fall in the same activation, the player whose model struck first wins. Strictly simultaneous: most surviving models.

Victory: First to take their target Out of Action with one of their own models, or to force it to Flee. A kill by hostiles does not score: if hostiles remove your target, choose a new target at the start of your next activation. If neither target falls to its hunter by game end, reveal both. Most surviving models.

Reward: Winner gains +1 Lead.
Bonus: The model that killed the target gains +1 Merit.
Intel: +1 Evidence if the winner killed their target (target profile gathered).

"Resistance will add to your balance."
