Actually is dice/ 1 meter area. You roll the dice vs Tn 4 (cover + Damage
apply), every 2 success = 1 bullets hits that target, up to the number of
bullets fired. 1 meters sq = 1 yard sq. 2 people at the most can fit in that
type of area and if they are standing that close, they deserve to be nuked.
(6 successes = +3 power +1 damage code. )
Before in shadowrun a person (firearms 1) could spray a stream of bullets down
a hallway and because of lack of skill and high TN, HE WOULD NOT HIT A SINGLE
PERSON!!!!!!. Now what kind of sense does that make?? Machine guns like m-60's
and such were never made to be fired right at people, instead they are there to
scare the living drek out of them and to hopefully get them on a passing shot.
So, what you are basically are saying is that you don't like the fact that an
untrained person can walk into a room and start spraying lead around and
possibly kill one of your characters? It happens in normal life, why not
shadowrun?

Don't get shot at.
