Gunslinger is also the name of a piece of Frontier Town clothing.

The Gunslinger has the ability to automatically counterattack when she is attacked by a unit that is within her firing range. If the unit attacks from outside her firing range (Sharpshooter, Tactician, Artillery) she cannot counterattack.

The Gunslinger deals the most damage against Human units out of all the basic units that do not have to be unlocked, although she is weak against Steam units.

The Gunslinger's counterattack always does 50% of the damage she can do to the unit that attacks her at full health.

[edit] Historical Notes

In the beginning, the Gunslinger was the weakest unit of any unit. She did a very small amount of damage, and her special ability did not help much. On June 20, 2006, however, her power was boosted, making her much more powerful than she was previously.
