New Unit Type - Elite KTS Bounty Hunter

Privateers are common in the Zone now, BFC uses temporary contractors to fill gaps. However the ranks of KTS are more elite in general therefor the standard for an elite unit is quite high. 

They are not contracted units nor are they under the command and control structure. They are offered work on an adhoc basis, given jobs that are too hard for regular units. 

They are cunning, smart and very effective. They negotiate with KTS the terms of the deal. Typically a base rate for the mission, normally in the 1-2 million CR range, followed by a series of auxiliary costs and sundries ontop. 

Common in the negotiations are elimination bonuses, upwards of 10,000CR per unit taken out, depending on rank. One once negotiated 250,000CR for a command unit elimination and took out 3 in one sitting. 

Another common one is transport, they request transport with KTS or CPD crew operating the craft. 

The next most common and perhaps most controversial Auxiliary cost is what is called Monetary sacrifice units or MSU. 

The EBH will typically request a squad or more of CPD units (purchased via a support agreement with KTS) to be on close support standby normally within close proximity to the extraction zone. 

Once the mission is complete the EBH may or may not have a large enemy (BFC) force on her tail. The Monetary Sacrifice squad/s will be in place to act as a buffer to allow the EBH to escape. 

In all circumstances the MSS are left behind to be taken out by the enemy force. 

A nominal cost is applied to each unit of 25,000CR replacement cost. 

To offset this cost, the EBH units will typically take out as many enemy units as possible, often to an un-necessary degree to cover the cost. 

They lay traps, mess with equipment and generally obliterate the enemy units by any means necessary to cover the cost. 

Once they have covered the cost of their MSS total, their fate is then sealed and they are fighting right until they are expended
