Special Unit Abilities
The special unit abilities described here are intended for use with the Alpha Strike rule system:
Stealth (STL)
Though various stealth systems exist in the BattleTech universe, the majority are similar enough in function that Alpha Strike does not distinguish between them. These systems make a target more difficult to hit with weapon attacks (but not physical attacks), based on the range and unit type being targeted.
For attacks made against non-infantry targets with the STL special, apply an additional +1 Target Number modifier to attacks at Medium range, and an additional +2 modifier at Long range (or greater).
For attacks made against battle armor targets with the STL special, apply an additional +1 Target Number modifier at Short and Medium range, and an additional +2 modifier at Long range (or greater).
A non-infantry unit with STL is (intentionally) blocking its own emissions with its ECM. Any non-infantry Stealth unit is affected as if in an enemy ECM field, and cannot affect other units with its own ECM. However, if using the ECM/ECCM optional rules, a unit with AECM may still generate a single field (ECCM only) while the Stealth is on.
Toggling Stealth: To avoid being affected by its own ECM, a non-infantry unit with STL may toggle off its Stealth special ability in the End Phase. Place a mark above or through the Stealth special ability to note that it is off. It may be toggled back on in any subsequent End Phase.
