Ranged Weapon Penalties for Distance and Obstruction
Posted: Sun Sep 25, 2016 2:44 pm
It appears as though the penalties for using ranged weapons from an excessive distance or through an obstruction are coded in reverse such that they add rather than subtract from AB. (I suspect a sign is just reversed in the code for the penalty.)
Ex.)
Jimmy uses his sling from a normal distance:
1d20 + 13 = AB.
Jimmy uses his using from an exceptional distance:
[Message: distance penalty etc. = -13]
1d20 + 26 = AB
