Like the new Captain class ability. I think a discount for rations goes really with a captain class, as the captain is known for his charisma (pardons, morale, rations).
Cant say the same thing for the BH resist vs. search/loot though. the BH seems more like a combat/bounty captain for me, so maybe a gun, torp, tactics, bounty surveillance bonus would make more sense, and the resist vs. search and loot for the scout, as he's a part smuggler. Or Political/MO, as Political does Negociate and MO intimidate.

starfixer -- I assume you're talking about a previous release? We didn't add any BH Officer or BH Character class bonuses. I think in the future we'll avoid the similar names and different in-game meanings. Star's Edge has a lot of baggage that we like to carry forward into Star Traders RPG and I think sometimes it confuses people. Maybe we will rename the Bounty Hunter to Bodyguard, Acolyte or something more fitting.

I'm talking about the BH officer.
The capture bonus would have to be taken out, as it makes no sense that a bodyguard would increase your capture pay. Besides, I kinda like the name being Bounty Hunter Officer. And there are plenty of bonuses that could be applied to a bounty hunter, or fugative capturer. I made a post somewhat recently listing new officers and thier would-be bonuses. One of them, which i called 'commander' has alot of bonuses which can be applied to BH.
- Tactics bonus (good for gun, torp)
- special surveillance bonus (gives bounty surveillance ability to non-MO/BH profession captains and increases bounty surveillance success rate for MO/BH profession captains who already have the ability)
- Patrol bonus (maybe he's half bounty, half pirate? One could easily be both)
Would-be bonuses for 'Security Escort' that could apply to BH
- torpedo combat bonus
Defense bonus vs. Torpedo damage
- Stealth bonus (for advancing and mantaining range at long)

A body gard sounds more like it would center around protection for the captain. An HP protection bonus or a mutiny bonus. Starfixer, you should add one to your thread.  |

Great idea! Added By the way, the First Mate has a major mutiny bonus for 'fight'. There's a specific award you have to unlock first though, and I dnt remember which it is. |
