Shooting
A Shooting Attack is the most "normal" form of ranged attack, and consists of using a projectile weapon like a handgun, rifle, or other implement of destruction that is all too common in the USA. A character making a shooting attack may score a Miss, Hit, Bullseye, or Kill result.
A Shooting Attack may never be reduced by the attacker in effect or damage.
• A character scoring a Miss result misses the intended target. The missile continues to fly, and the Judge may, if he deems circumstances warrant it, make a second roll to see if the attack hits another target in the same general area and path of the weapon (this is why shooting into a crowd or a gasoline storage shed is known as "a bad idea").
• A character scoring a Hit result will inflict damage according to the weapon. Some specialized weapons inflict no damage, but instead call for an Endurance FEAT (Mercy Bullets).
• A character scoring a Bullseye result does damage as for a normal Hit result. A Bullseye is used if the character is shooting for a particular part of the target (the opponent's shooting hand, for example, in order to disarm him). The nature and result of a Bullseye is left to the Judge, but it should be required for targets of less than one foot square and should never be fatal.
• A character scoring a Kill result may kill his or her opponent. Check on the Kill result table. Note that there is a greater chance of killing with a shooting, edged weapon, or energy attack than for any other type.
