*NEW* Faction/Tag Inbound: Mercenaries | Mercs & Bounty Hunters, What's the Difference?

A new tag is coming to the game, largely to coincide with the new characters coming to the game from the Ahsoka show. In addition to these characters, many existing characters (largely Bounty Hunters) will be gaining this tag as well.

New characters will have synergies with "mercenaries" built into their kits, which will be able to spill over onto existing characters that gain this tag.

Now Mercs and Bounty Hunters seem pretty similar, so what is actually the difference? Well, largely CG explained it as the principles behind each ideology. Bounty Hunters are doing a job (for money) where a merc is doing a job for ideological reasons.
