|If you kill a creature on your turn with a ranged attack, you can make another attack immediately for 0 AP with your equipped ranged weapon. If you kill that creature, you may make one more additional attack for 0 AP. Subsequent attacks cost AP as normal, even if they are killing blows.

|'''Sniper’s Nest II'''

|Your Battlefield Tactician ability range when choosing a target increases from 5 ft to 20 ft, and you gain the Battle Standard ability.  

* '''Battle Standard.''' You carry your battle standard into battle. This requires one free hand. You can plant or retrieve your battle standard with 1 AP. It has a base range of 20 ft. All friendly targets within range gain TA on their first attack made on each turn they start in range

Battle standards have AR, REF, and FORT of 15. They have 20 HP, DR 20/Fire, and DT 10.

|Friendly targets now gain TA on all attacks while within range of your standard.

|''Repeatable.'' Your battle standard gains +10 HP

|'''Improved Battle Standard'''

|(1/Week) You may repair one battle standard when you Take a Rest, even if you are not in a settled area.

|Allies within range of your standard gain the Rallied condition.

It carries one additional battle standard, and cannot attack, but can plant and retrieve Battle Standards. If your standard bearer is slain in combat, you may hire a new one by spending at least 3 days in a populated area and expending 100 sc

|Your Standard Bearer gains +5 ft speed and no longer provokes reactive attacks due to movement.

|Your standard bearer now gains experience up to 30 times. For each week under your employ where they engage in combat (not training or sparring), they gain an additional 1d4+1 HP.  

On the 5th, 10th, 15th, 20th, 25th, and 30th weeks that they gain experience, they gain one talent of your choice as though they were a level 1 adventurer, excluding magic entry talents.

|Gain the Command ability.

* '''Command.''' A willing target, who can hear you, within 20 ft of you may immediately follow one of your commands. Gain the Attack command.

* '''''Attack:''''' (AP Varies) The target immediately makes an attack with a weapon they are holding, gaining TA. This costs you a number of AP equal to what it would cost the target.

* '''''Hold your Fire:''''' (0 AP) All targets in range that can see and hear you gain the ability to prepare ranged attacks or spells that they have AP for, if they chose to do so, on their next turn. They can specify a trigger for their attacks or spell casts such as “When an enemy is in range” or “When an enemy attacks.” The commander may suggest a trigger, but the target is not required to use that trigger.

|Gain the Fire! command.  

* '''''Fire!:''''' (2 AP) All targets who are using “Hold your Fire” may immediately make the attacks and cast the spells they were holding. For each volley, every participant rolls to attack, but all participants use the highest die roll. A volley is considered an attack that expends AP. For example, if Player 1 and 2 both had 6 AP, and prepared three attacks each, and Player 3 had 6 AP but could only cast one spell, Players 1, 2, and 3 roll for Volley 1 and take the highest of their three rolls. Players 1 and 2 participate in Volley 2 and 3.

[[File:Soldier Track.png|thumb|553x553px|Soldier Track Progression]]

|You may use STR as your attack and damage attribute for longbows and standing longbows

|You gain no penalties from Concealed, Invisible, or Unseen on attacks made on creatures within 5 ft of you, assuming you have located them. Battlefield Tactician now lasts its full duration regardless of sight.

|You gain the [[Specialization Talents|Exploitative talent]]. If you already have the Exploitative talent, you gain the [[Specialization Talents|Opportunist talent]].

|When making an Exploit attack against the target of your Battlefield Tactician ability, it costs you 1 fewer AP (min 1). If you hit, you may make a secondary attack: STR vs FORT. '''Hit''': The target is knocked Prone.

|You may now add half your AWR to your Exploit attack rolls, and additional compromising actions evoke Exploit attacks from you: casting a spell, standing up from Prone, and stowing or drawing a weapon.

|You can carry one additional item with the unwieldy tag. A number of Allies equal to your AWR who travel with you for 7 days or more gain the effects of Versatile Arsenal on any day that they complete a Rest in the same building or campsite as you.  

Additionally, once per 7 days, if you spend 8 hours training, you can reassign any Talent Points spent in the Combat stack, picking new talents from the same stack.

|The range of Blind Fighting increases to 15 ft. You gain +2 to AWR checks to locate Unseen creatures, increasing to +6 if the creature is within 15 ft of you.

|The rank and file is beneath you, and you crave a test of your skills as a soldier. Once per week, you can specify a target of your Battlefield Tactician as the Challenged. If they accept this, they focus their attacks on you as if they have been commanded to do so under the effects of Enthralled. You may not intentionally target or attack creatures that are not the Challenged, unless they are directly impeding your ability to attack the Challenged. Additionally, you gain Shield HP equal to your level, and all of your defenses equal your AWR, unless they would be higher otherwise.  

If the Challenged creature declines the challenge, all of that creature’s allies that see this gain the Broken condition for 10 minutes.  

|You crave battle. When your Showdown ability is available to use, you gain +2 STR and -2 AWR. While it is unavailable, if you won your last Showdown, you gain 1 HP at the beginning of each turn in combat if you are Bloodied. While it is recharging and you lost your last Showdown, you deal +2 damage.

|You gain +5 to your Initiative rolls. You can no longer be Surprised, and when making a STR or AWR skill check in combat, roll 2d20 and take the higher result.

|You are a soldier of great renown. Tales of your conquests on the battlefield have been spread far and wide. Kings might compete to earn your allegiance and great merchants would pay small fortunes to acquire your services.

It is nearly impossible for you to be slain in battle. If you reach your Death Point max, but your head and torso remain intact, you may make a choice: to continue fighting or submit to your injuries.

If you submit, you become Unconscious instead of dead, and must retire from your adventuring lifestyle upon being healed. You may no longer participate in combat unless attacked, and must make an effort to avoid it. This can be roleplayed as a mix of physical and/or mental wounds, or simply a personal choice. Generally, this means rolling a new character and handing over narrative control to your MC.

If you continue to fight, you cannot die so long as the battle you are participating in persists. An hour after combat, or 1 minute after you are the last one standing of your allies, you die. This cannot be mitigated by healing, as the wounds you receive pushing past this limit go beyond the scope of healing magic.

* '''Level 30:''' If you reach level 30 without using your Indomitable Champion feature, you gain +2 STR and the final cap for your STR increases from 12 to 14.
