How do you handle firing into a group?
Imagine group of archers firing into a squad of 100 orcs.
- Would they have to pick out one target each? Normal attack roll?
- Would they just fire into the group (this seems logical to me)?
------>Would you give them a bonus to hit then?
------>Would you use the cover rules for linear fire (starting with the first orc and checking each orc in a straight line from the archer)?
------>Would you use the ballistic rules with deviation to see which square is hit and then figure out if an orc in that square was wounded?
-----> Would you let the archers do an attack roll to see if they hit the group (very large target) first, then figure out the target randomly, then see if the attack was enough to hit him?
This is for very large groups only....
