| − | === 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.'''

| − | # '' '''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.''

| − | # '' '''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).

| − | # '' '''Soak Damage''' If he hits each ganger on average would take 6S(e) (Base 5S + 1 next successes) damage and be zapped.''
