The book includes templates (Black Ops, Company Men, Freelance Bounty Hunter, Repo Man, and Skip Tracer), getting licensed, suggested backgrounds for PCs, a few gadgets, and advice on adventures and campaigns.

Bounty Hunters (Book) Description

Millions of people are on the run. Some have defaulted on loans. Some have skipped bail. Some have stolen from their employers ... or their lovers. And some simply know things that they were never meant to learn. All of them are trying to lose themselves in the Imperium - and it's your job to find them before they do.

GURPS Traveller: Heroes 1 - Bounty Hunters is the first in a series of books expanding on the character templates found in the GURPS Traveller rules. Contained within, you will find:

A full discussion of bounty hunting in the Imperium - including what to do when the local authorities won't cooperate.
New templates for corporate bounty hunters, repo men, skip tracers, and lots more!
GM advice on running a bounty hunting campaign.
And plenty of NPCs to use as allies, rivals, or targets!
