Working on MasterBook 2E, my intention is to simplify, but maintain compatibility with 1E. Ranged weapons have always been a little extra work to write down on your character sheet and then reference during play, since each class of weapon utilizes a different set of difficulty modifiers. While this may provide a little realism, it's also a bit cumbersome.

Second Edition will feature one set of range modifiers for all ranged weapons:

PB: -2, S: 0, M: +1, L: +2, E: +4

This makes action quicker with less referencing. Of course, if you wish to use the old method, with specific range modifiers, those will also be included in the equipment section as an option. |
