Media Files====== Innocent Bystanders ====== When an attacker misses a Shooting or Athletics (throwing) roll, it may sometimes be important to see if any other targets in the line of fire were hit. The GM should only use this rule when it’s dramatically appropriate—not for every missed shot in a hail of gunfire. Each skill die that’s a 1 can hit a random victim adjacent to or directly in the line of fire to the original target. Wild dice never hit innocent bystanders. A Wild Card must miss with his Wild Die for a RoF 1 weapon to hit an Innocent Bystander (except for shotguns, see below). This means it’s sometimes easier to hit an adjacent victim than the original target. That may not be entirely realistic, but is simple, dramatic, and requires some care in tight tactical situations. This is why this happens only sometimes at the DMs call when appropriate such as when firing into a physical struggle. **ROF 2 + OR SHOTGUN:** Weapons that spray bullets or buckshot are much more likely to hit others. Each skill die that rolls a 1 or a 2 hits a bystander.SavePreviewCancel Edit summary
