✸ Racial Abilities ✸

• +1 racial bonus to all attack rolls with the Bossonian longbow: The Bossonians practise daily with their powerful bows from an early age. They hone that practice with regular experience, holding off hordes of Picts and battling in the armies of the neighbouring kingdom of Aquilonia.

• +2 racial bonus to Defence when fighting defensively or using the total defence action: The Bossonian fortitude in defence is almost legendary.

• No racial bonus to Fate Points (see page 75): Unlike other Hyborians, Bossonians get no particular bonus to Fate Points.

• Exotic Weapon Proficiency: Bossonian Longbow: All Bossonians learn to wield Bossonian longbows, since all must be ready to defend their homes against the Picts at any time. However, they do not gain weapon familiarity with the greatsword, unlike most Hyborian races, as they traditionally field archers rather than knights.

• Background Skills: Craft (bowyer) or Survival, Knowledge
  (local), any two other skills chosen by the player.

✸ Class Abilities ✸

• Weapon and Armour Proficiency: A soldier is proficient with all simple and martial weapons, two-weapon combat (soldiers effectively gain the Two-Weapon Combat feat for free), light, medium and heavy armour and shields. Note that armour check penalties for wearing medium or heavy armour apply to the Balance,Climb, Escape Artist, Hide, Jump, Move Silently,
  Sleight-of-Hand and Tumble skills. Also, Swim checks suffer a –1 penalty for every five pounds of armour and equipment a soldier carries.

• Bonus Feats: At 1st level, the soldier gets a bonus feat in addition to the feat that any 1st level character gets and any bonus feats granted by his race. The soldier gains an additional bonus feat at 2nd level and every two levels thereafter (4th, 6th, 8th and so on). The feats that may be selected as soldier bonus feats are indicated in the Feats
  table in the Feats chapter. A soldier must meet all prerequisites for a feat, including ability score and base attack bonus minimums.

• Formation Combat: At 3rd level the soldier learns to fight as part of a formation rather than as an individual. He may select one of the following formations. An improved
  formation can only be selected if the character has the corresponding basic formation:
  Heavy Cavalry: Whenever the soldier is mounted and has two mounted and allied soldiers who have also selected heavy cavalry within 20 feet of him, he gains a +1 circumstance bonus to his Armour Piercing rating with any melee weapon. All three soldiers must be mounted and in medium or heavy armour.

Fighting Spirit: Whenever the soldier has two allied soldiers who have also selected fighting spirit within 30 feet of him, he gains a +1 bonus to Will saves and Fortitude saves.

Improved Fighting Spirit: Whenever the soldier has two allied soldiers who have also selected improved fighting spirit within 30 feet of him, he gains a +2 bonus to Will
saves and Fortitude saves. The soldier may select a new formation at 7th, 11th, 15th and
19th levels.

• Officer: Starting at 5th level, the soldier gains the ability to co-ordinate and command others. He may temporarily allow other people to count as a soldiers with a specific formation, so long as the characters in question are of equal or lower level to the soldier
  with the officer class feature.

For example, a 5th level soldier and a 3rd level soldier both have the skirmisher formation. Under normal circumstances,they would be unable to benefit from this formation. However, by using the officer ability, the 5th level soldier could extend the formation to a third character, allowing the three to enter skirmisher formation. This ability can affect a number of people at any one time equal to the soldier’s Intelligence bonus.

To use this ability, the soldier must spend a free action every round shouting orders. Those using the formation must obey those commands. If a character uses Fighting-Madness, crimson mist or another effect that is incompatible with disciplined fighting, or falls victim to fear or terror, that character does not count as part of the formation for the duration of the effect. The soldier can target other soldiers with this ability to give them formations that they do not possess. A soldier can only use the officer ability to share improved formations if the target already possesses the basic version of the formation. At 9th, 13th and 17th levels, the number of people the soldier can affect with his officer ability increases by +1.

Caltrops: 2 Lbs covers 5 foot square. BAB +0 vs. Dodge Defence. If defender wears shoes, +2. If failed, caltrop deals 1 point of damage and the creature’s speed is reduced by one half. Lasts 24 hours. DC 15 Heal Check treats it. If creature moves at half speed, they can walk through the caltrops.

Bowcaps: The addition of small metal blades to the outer points of a bow’s body or crossbow’s arm gives an archer a potential melee weapon if needed. The blades are heated and driven into the wood, making them stable – but also unfortunately easy to drive too far into the wood and
split it. A bow or crossbow with bowcaps can be used as a melee weapon that inflicts 1d6 damage, but whenever a melee attack inflicts more damage than the weapon’s Hardness (after damage modifiers) the weapon suffers 1d4 Hit Points of damage. Arbalest, Crossbows or Bow Types Only DC 20 Craft (bowyer)+25 sp.
