yeah. I like this idea. We are ment to be sneaking on our marks, but we lack the tools to do so. Radar cloak would be awsome! ![]()
I have thought of a recon tool - like a electrobinocular that can also give some more info about the mark when you /examine him with it. The info reveled would be bases on the seeker accuracy bonus the character has. It could be info about the LS, skills, armor or any special objects the character carries. The main info should be the skill level the target has. The more accuracy the seeker has the, more detailed info you will get about his skills. Of course there should be some faulty info too, that might lure the BH to make jedigement on false information.

Its not necessarily that we want to win toe to toe with the Jedi. But first strike is our biggest advantage. In your post you insinuate that BH's are not as powerfull as Jedi. Ok, Im fine with that. But in order to even the playing field a little, we depend on first strike and the element of surprise wich is taken away by the radar.
Many people say to study your opponent and wait for the right time to strike..I agree with that. But how effective is our "Studying" of our target when we cant even get within 1000 meters of our target without getting noticed. How are we to know if our target is just sitting in a house that is in a city that isnt on a planetary map? Or out grinding? Or just sitting in the dirt watching sunsets?
Alot of times the best time to strike is when a Jedi is grinding. Engaged in combat, and lowering his/her force, and HAM in the process.
IMHO First strike is crucial to a BH. BH's should have the ability to atleast get withing viewing distance, without being detected, in order to assess a situation.
And dont say get Riflemans Cover. Cover is a joke that can be broken if a bird craps on you. Even tapes that enhance your crawl speed wont stop that.
