• One long-range, encrypted comlink backpack. Has connector for a datapad (included) to enable global positioning.
• One pair of standard macrobinoculars.

Special:

If any of the heroes is enrolled in the Cularin Militia, they may select one of the following, one of each per militia member, per table. E.g., if the team has two militia members, they may have a total of two of these items in the group. These need to be returned, if not destroyed.

• Light repeating blaster rifle.
• Merr-Sonn Model G8s Sniper Blaster Rifle. The sniper version of a popular military blaster rifle, it has been customized heavily. The G8s is not multi-shot capable, nor does it have a stun setting. It has been outfitted with a scope and bipod. The scope eliminates ranges penalties for the first 2 range increments. The bipod reduces the range penalty by 2 when deployed and used. The range increment is 60m for the G8s. Extensive retooling of the blaster components makes it more deadly (Crit 18-20), but reduces the available number of shots per power cell to 12.
