[QUOTE="KarinsDad, post: 66200, member: 2011"] I created the following house rule, based on the 2E distances chart (course, it is a table and will not show up well here): Vision: The following chart illustrates the distances at which a man sized figure could be seen. The difficulty of spotting normally ranges from DC 10 to DC 30 where DC 30 is the maximum range in column one or two and DC 10 is the range for that same thing three columns to the right, based on the distance and the conditions (the extra numbers in the first two columns are range increments). So, in clear daylight, it would be a DC 10 spot roll to detect movement at 300 feet, a DC 11 spot roll to detect movement at 510 feet, a DC 30 spot roll to detect movement at 4500, etc. It would be a DC 10 spot check to detect a stationary human in the open at 30 feet, a DC 11 at 105 feet, a DC 30 at 3000 feet. Movement: Farthest you can see anything, only that there is movement. Stationary: Stationary figures can be seen. Type: General traits of figure are discernable. Identify: Enough of figure discernable to remember/identify individuals. Detail: Small actions can be seen clearly. Ranges are in feet, and are maximums. Note: Range for low light vision is doubled for Twilight and Night with the exception of Detail. Note: The DC will be lowered for looking in the right direction, closer than the DC 10 distance, etc. Movement Stationary Type Identify Detail Clear day 4300, 200 3030, 150 1500 300 30 Light rain 3100, 150 1630, 80 800 100 30 Twilight 1600, 75 1030, 50 500 100 30 Light fog, snow 1300, 60 630, 30 300 100 30 Moderate fog 350, 15 230, 10 75 50 30 Night, full moon 330, 15 215, 10 100 30 15 Night, half moon 225, 10 110, 5 60 25 10 Night, no moon 115, 5 70, 3 30 15 10 Dense fog, blizzard 30 30 15 15 10 [/QUOTE]
