Preemptive Shot triggers when the Gunslinger/Bounty Hunter is targeted by a ranged attack in combat, shooting their attacker with a ranged shot '''before''' the enemy has a chance to fire. There is a possibility that the whole attacking stack is killed by Preemptive Shot, therefore dealing no damage. Gunslingers can only do this once per round, while Bounty Hunters can do this an unlimited number of times.  
Preemptive Shot triggers when the Gunslinger/Bounty Hunter is targeted by a ranged attack in combat, retaliating against their attacker with a ranged shot before the enemy has a chance to fire. Gunslingers can only do this once per round, while Bounty Hunters can do this an unlimited number of times.


Preemptive Shot works against all ranged shots, except ranged AoE attacks: Liches' [[Death Cloud]]s and Magogs' [[Fireball Attack]]s, even if target Gunslingers or Bounty Hunters as a central hex.

Preemptive Shot does not trigger if the Gunslinger or Bounty Hunter is prevented from performing a ranged attack, such as if it is under the effect of the [[Forgetfulness]] spell or there is an enemy unit adjacent to it and the hero does not have the [[Bow of the Sharpshooter]] equipped.
Preemptive Shot does not trigger if there is an enemy unit adjacent to the Gunslinger/Bounty Hunter, unless the hero has [[Bow of the Sharpshooter]] equipped.
 
So as to avoid Preemptive Shot, ranged wandering monsters often walk by land or cast spells (Storm and Ice Elementals) if you have Gunslingers or Bounty Hunters, instead of shooting.
