Wargear: Sniper rifle
Special Rules
Sharpshooter: Any casualties taken inflicted on a unit by Stumper are chosen by the imperial guard player, in the same way as those inflicted by a vindicare assassin.
Decoy: Once per game, during the enemies shooting phase, Stumper may elect to replace himself with a decoy, I.E a helmet on a stick. This is declared after Stumper is designated as the target of a ranged attack. This attack is wasted and no other enemy unit may target stumper that turn (Though they may still assault him), however, Stumper may not fire the following turn.
Instead of an elites choice, you should make him an upgrade to a ratling squad like Night Commander whatshisbucket or Sergeant Telion.
