Clarity on Greedo's Unique
Since the Bounty Hunter rework dropped, us folks in the BH discord channel have been going back and forth about Greedo's unique with no conclusive verdict reached. The unique states that "Greedo has a 50% chance to attack again whenever Greedo scores a critical hit." There is no mention of a cap on how many additional turns he could take, if any. The discussion stemmed from the comments by CG_Tophat and CG_CapitalMethod in the BH rework kit release podcast below:

Track to 36:45 and they mention that "Greedo is the only character in the game without a limit on how many turns he can take, and if the stars align he could shoot forever (not verbatim)." Ignore the fact that this is already an incorrect statement since Wicket could theoretically attack forever too, and that ends up being a pretty important comment from the devs, especially since this has never been reported by Greedo users since the launch of the game. The BH discord community has also overwhelmingly agreed that they have never seen Greedo hit more than twice, although some think he can when he counters. While this is anecdotal, it's still a 25% chance to hit a third time as long as he crits and it seems like that certainly should have been observed by now.
What I'd like is clarity from the devs regarding this ability. Were they correct in stating that the 50% chance to attack again is applied every time he crits, or is it simply 1 bonus turn? If they were correct, can they confirm that the mechanics of this ability are WAI?
