Merry Christmas. Your wife and kids picked a great gift!

Correct, Fenn gets an additional attack die against his target if at range 1 (total 5), and an additional defense die against any attacker at range 1 (total 4). He can equip the title for even better defense at range 1 if they're facing each other (free bonus evade), and finally top it off with Autothrusters for great defense at range 3. I've also seen him gamble with Stealth Device, though that time it ended badly against a turret swarm. ;)

Range 2 is a vulnerable zone for him though, and it can be tricky to position into the range 1 sweet spot if your opponent is wise to your goals. They will try to make you bump or over/undershoot them, all the while firing at you, knowing the wrong crit could spell doom. To me, this is what makes Protectorates so interesting and fun -- they're very delicate and tricky to use, but potentially wildly powerful.

Enjoy!
