The support function is fairly straight forward. It is used as a means of building the dice pool for actions made during the Trigger On! game mode. There are three traits in this category, of which only 1 can be chosen for the given action. The three traits are: Solo, Buddy, and Team.

During character creation, the player decides what this character’s strengths are in regards to team functionality. They have 3 dice to assign to these three traits, a d6, a d8, and a d10. If someone decided that their character will focus on being a strong team player, providing support for the ace as and when needed, then they would most likely assign it as follows: Solo d6, Buddy d8, Team d10.

When it comes time to pick the dice to add to the dice pool, the character determines what this action entails. Are they fighting 1 on 1 with an enemy, are they providing cover fire or distractions to provide openings in their opponent for a teammate, defending a teammate from ranged attacks, or are they laying a trap-field for all their teammates to take advantage of? Once it’s decided which trait a given action would use, that dice assigned to that trait is added to the dice pool to be rolled.
