| − | == Firing modes and Multiple Attacks ==
| |
| | | | |
| − | When characters use an '''Attack''' Major Action with a firearm the attack is based on the Firing Mode.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * '''Semi Auto''' can be used with '''Multiple Attack''' to allow a '''Single Shot''' attack on two targets.
| |
| − | * '''Burst Fire (Narrow Burst)''' can select one targeted with an AR of -3 (3 bullets DV +2).
| |
| − | * '''Burst Fire (Wide Burst)''' to allow a combination of attacks of different targets. Each Additional targets require a '''Multiple Attack''' Minor Action and attacks with an AR of -3 on each attack using SA (2 bullets DV +1) or a SS attack (1 bullet normal DV.)
| |
| − | * The '''Anticipation''' Edge Action can be used with either of the above examples but not with '''Full Auto'''.
| |
| − | * '''Full Auto''' can be split the 10 bullets into smaller attacks against different targets without the need for the '''Multiple Attack''' Minor Action. Each attack has an AR of -6.. '''Long Bursts''' (6 bullets DV +3), '''Burst Fire''' (3 bullets DV +2), '''Semi Auto''' (2 bullets DV +2, or single shots (1 bullet DV Base)
| |
| − | *'''Full Auto''' can fire a single attack at one target using 10 bullet on one target with -6 AR and +4 DV. Full auto can’t target the same target with multiple small attacks. R
| |
| − | * HV Weapons can attack with a '''HV Full Auto''' Attack with an AR of -8 (15 bullets DV +5), OR a '''HV Narrow Bursts''' with an AR -6 (6 bullets DV +3), OR a '''HV Wide Burst''' with and AR of -6 (splitting attacks as per full auto above)

| − | === Wide Bursts and Walking Fire ===
| |
| − | When an attack is made with a Wide Burst against multiple targets, if the targets are more than 1 meter apart for each additional 1 m between the targets a round of ammo is use up. If the attacker uses a SmartGun system the road of ammo will not be fired but the total number of rounds used in the wide burst will be reduced by 1.
| |

| |
| − | === Using Weapons in Each Hand ===
| |
| − | When attacking with more that one weapon each attack after the first requires one Multiple Attack minor action. Make a separate attack roll for each attack, splitting the dice pools between the multiple attacks (If the attacks are made with weapons that have a different skill or specialisation use the average of the two skills to calculate the dice pool. This is compatible with Anticipation but the character only gains their full dice pool on their on-hand, their off hand gets half the dice pool rounded up. When attacking with your off-hand, you can neither gain nor use Edge. If you’re attacking with two hands, the attack from your primary hand can still gain and spend Edge; for other rules, see Multiple Attacks below.

| − | ''Bentene has a two Ares Predators each with an integral SmartGun system and a barrel mounted Gas-Vest in each hand and wants to shoot two gangers, with one burst from each gun on each ganger. He has Agility 7, Firearms 5 (Pistols 7) and a wireless active SmartLink (CyberEyes). He uses his wireless link to switch both to Burst Fire mode, a Minor Action but immediately gains a Minor Action due to the SmarklLnk.'''

| − | # '' '''Grab Dice''': He uses an Attack Major Action and Multiple Target Minor Action (to shoot the second ganger). He splits his Dice Pool of 15, 10 against the first ganger, and 5 against the second ganger.''
| |
| − | # '' '''Distribute Edge''' Each Ares Predator has a base AR of 11 (Base of 10 at near range, +2 for SmartLink, -3 for Burst reduced to -1 by the Gas-Vent). The gangers both have a DR of 5 (Body 3 + 2 Synth leather). Bentene gains 1 Edge against the first ganger using his on-hand, but CAN NOT gain Edge against the second ganger as he is using his Off Hand.

| − | # '' '''Roll Dice and Spend Edge''' On the first attack he rolls 4,5,2,6,4,2,4,2,5,6 = 4 Hits. He spends 2 Edge to +1 to one of the 4's to a 5 for a total of 5 hits. The Ganger uses a Dodge Minor Action and rolls Agility + Reaction + Athletics (8 dice) and gets 2 hits. Against the Second ganger he rolls 5 dice and gets 1, 1, 1, 4, 5. A GLITCH but still a hit. He can't spend Edge on this roll as he is using his off-hand. The Ganger uses a Dodge Minor Action and rolls Agility + Reaction + Athletics (8 dice) and gets 3 hits, so dodges the attack ''
| |
| − | # '' '''Soak Some Damage''' The first ganger now rolls a Body test vs a DV of 7P (Base 3+ +2 DV for Burst Fire, +2 net hits). He rolls 1 Hit and takes 6 Physical Damage.''
| |
| − | # '' '''Bring the Pain''' The first ganger is now on -2 to all dice pools and as the damage is greater than his Professional Rating of 3 will give of fighting.''
| |
| − | ''If Betene had used the 4 Edge Anticipation Action, he could have rolled his full dice pool (15) with his on-hand shot against the first ganger, and half the dice pool (7.5 rounded up to 8) against the second ganger.''

He has Improved reflexes 3 and rolls 4D6+13, which gives hime 1 Major Actuion and 5 Minor Actions. He is using Ambidexterous and two Batons. Each ganger uses two Minor Actions to block twice and rolls Reaction (3) + Intuition (3) + Close Combat (3) for a dice pool of 9 for each block''

| − | # '' '''Distribute Edge''' Nightwing has an AR of 6. Each ganger has a DR of 5 (Body 3 + 2 armour for synth leathers. Nightwing gains no Edge. The GM awards each ganger 2 Edge for their overwhelming numbers.
| |
| − | # '' '''Roll Dice and Spend Edge'''. Nightwing attacks each ganger with both batons. He spends 1 Major Action (Attack) and 5 minor actions (Multiple Attack) to target 5 additional targets beyond the first. He decides to split is dice pool of 18 equally so will attack each target with 3 dice which he then splits between the two battons (2 and 1). BUT Nightwing has Anticipated their every move (4 Edge Action)! He now rolls 18 dice vs each target which he then needs to split between the two battons (9 and 9). On average he should get 3 hits per attack for a DV of 5S(e) (+2 for critical strike) vs the targets average of 3.

| − | # '' '''Soak Damage''' Each ganger on average would take 6S(e) (Base 5S + 1 next successes) damage and be zapped.''
| |
| − | ''But each ganger is professional rating 3 and has gained 2 Edge, so has enough Edge to re-roll all failures so on averrable would get 5 hits on their block test and would block the attacks!''
