So, throwing weapons.... a staple of my Gutter Runners. I recall stipulations in prior editions that thrown weapons did not receive the -1 penalty for long range. I can find no such exclusion in 8th ed. Does this mean that my poor rats are shooting at -2 if they move and throw more than 3"?
At least they get to march and throw. That's a good 18" threat range.
EDIT: Slicer sets me straight. I thought Quick To Fire was only a stand and shoot thing, but it also removes the -1 for move and fire. The long range modifier still appears to apply though, so only -1 instead of -2.
The dead rise again!

I love slings on my Gutter Runners. And Poison. They can move and double-tap, needing 5's w/in 9" and 6's w/in 18" (+6" move).
ReplyDeleteThrown weapons have the special rule 'quick to fire'. 'Quick to fire' can be found in the list of special rules, and means no penalty for moving and shooting. XD
