Grimy's Headhunter Class

The headhunter is a powerful DPS class with a catch.
The headhunter wields a sniper rifle with neither squadsight nor snapshot.
Instead, the class fields a number of sniper rifle abilities that can be used after moving, but target random enemies.

One of my goals in the design of my soldier classes, is to make abilities as interactive as possible.
To achieve this, I made a class who is focused around attacks that hit random enemies.
This gives the commander an extra layer of decision making such as: do I test my RNG first? Do deliberately block LOS for my soldier to reduce the number of possible targets? Do I fire last? etc.
