[QUOTE="HeapThaumaturgist, post: 1435057, member: 12332"] Yea. That's what I meant. If the gun has a burstfire setting, then you can use it to get a +2 on the attack, though you burn 3 rounds for it. As it stands, an "untrained" person does nothing more than waste ammo, even with the burst limiter in place. As do I, as do I. I'm saying 0-2 more DICE of damage, representing an additional graze or single additional hit as you TRY to "hose" the one guy in the area of effect. If more than one person is there, trying to spread the bullets out to hit everyone uses autofire as normal. This would make autofire on one person a little more lethal, though there's still a 30% chance that you don't get any extra hits in, regardless. Maybe raise the percentage for getting NO extra damage. Hrm. This one is still REALLY up in the air. Just a thought I had. A bone to throw to the people who want to "open up" on somebody ... it isn't really going to do much extra damage, but at least they'll FEEL badass. ;) Oddly, one of my players wanted to play: "A priest with a shotgun." ... I laughed and shook my head, thinking immediately of the Medallions game. His priest, though, seems to be based more off of the movie "The Order" ... a rogue priest of the now-defunct Carolingian order. A little more heroic than I wanted, but I AM starting them at 3rd, so, it represents his knowledge of the weird, I guess. We're diving right in with the group as agents of The Hoffmann Institute. --fje [/QUOTE]
