Well one way round it is to adopt the pseudo rules for combat pools which I
posted a while ago <god I'm pissed, I've just hit delete key 15 or so times>.
This effectively uses different TN's for dodging and negates the advantage of
mag 3. On a more practical note, cause many people (inlcuding the dark lord on
high) don't agree with that method you can always insist that changing the
focus on the eyes takes up a free action. So if in one action a sam tries to
shoot at two oppoents 1 at short range and 1 at long range (for eg) you then
clobber him with the new TN. <God I really am pissed. But it is thoroughly
recommended. Go to a real ale festival then come and real your mail at
