Meaning so long as everyone burned a turn before shooting it really was very trivial to hit someone at close range, but then, ain't nobody got the time for that (especially if it's going to be another half-hour before you get another turn).In my old age, I have no patience for that sort of thing. Or for the need to drop a half-point into a slew of skills just to simulate being a barely functioning human—sure, there are default rolls, but they're brutal. But for those who are into that level of detail and futzing, GURPS is almost impossible beat.</blockquote>
