Armas pesadas

Modificadores de alcance de armas pesadas

Cada arma pesada tiene un conjunto de cifras de alcance. Los modificadores de los dados de situación para el alcance, como se muestra a continuación en la TABLA P21: MODIFICADORES DE ALCANCE DE ARMAS PESADAS, pueden aplicarse cuando se usa un cierto tipo de arma pesada contra un objetivo o una ubicación que se encuentre dentro de una categoría de alcance particular. Además, la precisión de un arma de fuego indirecto depende del alcance entre el tirador y la ubicación del objetivo, así como del tipo de éxito logrado, como se muestra en la TABLA P20: PRECISIÓN POR ALCANCE. Algunas armas pesadas de fuego directo (así como algunos rifles y todas las metralletas) son armas automáticas capaces de disparar múltiples rondas de munición en cada ataque.

In general, using a computer requires the Knowledge-computer operation specialty skill. An untrained character can perform basic tasks (like word processing or playing a game) without knowing computer operation per se. Anything more complicated requires the use of the specialty.

Computer operation represents a user’s ability to get the most out of a computer’s normal operating parameters. It allows a character to effectively use and operate a computer. The Computer Science broad skill and its specialty skills provide more extensive aptitude to characters willing to put in additional time and training.
