Season 2 Balance Update (1 July 2026)

• Cost reduced by 1: 19 → 18 rpts.
• Gains the Follow-Up I Skill — if an enemy disengages from this model, it may move up to half its SPD toward the disengaged model.
• Inventory capacity increased by 2 (allows longer-reaching weapons to be carried).
• General rule change: the Shield no longer imposes the −1 STK penalty when used together with a Melee Weapon whose RCH > 0.
• Rationale: limited mobility and difficulty keeping enemies engaged often relegated the Citadel Guard to a purely Protector role. Follow-Up + extra inventory + a slight point reduction should restore her as a slow but terrifying frontline fighter.
