Bo-Katan and her fellow Mandalorians are next up for review in the upcoming Star Wars: Shatterpoint game!
Bo-Katan Kryze and the Clan Kryze Mandalorians, former members of Death Watch, are fighting against the splinter group led by Lord Maul to liberate Mandalore. They sought the aid of Ahsoka Tano and the Galactic Republic to save their forces from a swift defeat. The Clan Kryze Mandalorians are loyal and resolute warriors, ready to fight alongside Bo-Katan Kryze for their cause.
Bo-Katan Kryze’s Tactic ability, Pride of the Mandalore, allows an allied Mandalorian character to jump at the start of their activation, providing flexibility and pressure to objectives in a strike team. Mandalorian Units have the Stronger Together ability, which gives them a free focus action if a character in the Unit ends a move action within range 2 of another allied Mandalorian character. This ability doesn’t count against the Unit’s two allowed actions, making them more powerful when fighting together. Bo-Katan’s Jet Pack ability allows her to take advantage of this free action more often.
Bo-Katan Kryze’s ability, Mandalore Will Survive, provides her with extra opportunity to move and heal when making a focus action. Her Innate ability, Some of Us Serve a Higher Purpose, gives nearby allied Mandalorian characters Protection and Steadfast, making her an exceptional support-focused Secondary Unit. Bo-Katan’s Stance, Close Support, offers formidable Defense Expertise Chart, damage output, and three Shove results, along with mobility and enemy approach shutdown options. Bo-Katan is a point cost of 4 and works well with other Mandalorian Units on the battlefield.

They are each equipped with a Helmet Visor that gives the Unit Sharpshooter [1], adding extra value to focus actions.

They have a point cost of 4, making them a solid pick for any squad and can be run as a self-sufficient Supporting Unit or accompanied by other Mandalorians to maximize their effectiveness.
