Buccaneer in a nutshell
Cheap light jack primarily used to knock down things with its net.

Drawbacks and Downsides
- Won't get much killing done. It's Gaff has had a bit of a POW boost since MkII but still nothing to write home about.
- Set Defense gives it a little bonus vs charges, but low ARM means that it'll probably take a lot of damage regardless.
Tricks and Tips
- Look for big things to knock down. Don't forget that a lot of focus/fury-using models can shake the effect fairly easily, so make the most of it during your turn.
Changes from Mk2
- Slight increase of POW for the Gaff
- Gained "Set Defense" special rule

Rules Clarifications
|
Rules Clarification : Warjack (Edit)
- The Cortex/Induction core rule means a warjack cannot have more than 3 focus at any time (maybe 4 if they're really special).
- Many abilities give out focus and don't state an upper limit (such as Convection and Empower). Despite not stating an upper limit, they are always "hard-limited" by the core rule.
- A warjack can have more than 3 focus during a turn, though. For instance, a knocked down warjack can Power Up and be Allocated 2 focus, then spend 1 to shake knockdown, then another model could Empower it back up to 3.
- Warjacks cannot spend focus outside of their activation. For instance, they can't boost free strikes or trigger Powerful Attack on Broadsides. (Infernal Ruling)
Inert warjacks
- Abilities that say they cannot be used if the model is stationary (such as Shield Guard) cannot be used while a warjack is inert, either. Refer "Warcaster Destruction", page 59 of the core rulebook.
