Is anyone else familliar with the Bounty Hunter core class taken from Atlas Game's Crime and Punishment supplement? I'm going to be playing one in an upcoming game, and I'm wondering what I'm in for, what sort of tactics work well with Bounty Hunters, what special abilities to gain as I level up, or if anyone has discovered them to be broken?

Here's my character, any suggestions are welcome.
