Pg. 28-30 does specify that Biotech, Guard, Prime, etc. are special
abilities easily identified by keywords (even diagramed on pg 19). I meant
card text to refer to abilities like...The first pistol given to Kracker
Jack is free...etc.

Of course, YOU might not call it forclosure...:) but saying it's Unique is
a much better idea!
