Subject: [SGII] Firing While Still
Dear All, Thanks for the replys, some good thoughts: > Allan Goodall wrote: Sounds like a good idea, I was just torn between that or the squad firepower die. > Would you allow vehicles the same benefit? Most vehicles today can No I wouldn't, over those small distances it would be unlikely to spoil the stabilisation, and anyway vehicles fry pretty quick anyway! > Would you allow troops with special weapon stabilizing gear to move No, I wouldn't simply because they would then loose any benefit from being still, I think that no matter how stable the weapons platform, if it is still power armour and not an infactry mecha unit, there will be an advantage to staying still. > Chris DeBoe wrote: > Doesn't SG2 have "in position" as a defensive benefit? I grant you Well this is my point, if you have a longer time to stop and wait for the sweet shot you have a better chance of hitting the target, whereas if you merelysqueeze off a few rounds after you hit the piece of cover and then dash on again, then you will not be getting much of a chance to aim etc. What d'ya think
