Ever had to try and make a shot at models 4" in front of you, but had the shot scatter onto your team BEHIND you or the middle of nowhere 90 degrees off?


I'ld like to see scatter distance reduces as the target got closer.

Example:
Range 1-12" scatter = 1d3
Range 11-24" scatter = d6
Range 24+ scatter = 2d6.

While your giving a bonus to dudes firing at close range, your not penalizing long range shooting to balance it out.

Personally I think firing a blast weapon at someone so close shouldn't be possible. Never mind rewarded.
