Attacking with Missile/Thrown Weapons (Option)

When attempting to hit a distant target with a whip, thrown, or missile weapon, the characters accuracy, as well as targets distance/size/activity or Target Difficulty Modifier (TDM) must be taken into account. The shooter must roll normal Attack, but the TDM will be used as a modifier to simulate difficulty. Size Modifier Size of Target Less than 1 inch 1 inch 2 or 3 inches 4-7 inches 8-11 inches 1 foot 2-3 foot 4-5 foot 6-7 foot 8-9 foot 10+ feet Distance Modifier Distance TDM 3-6 feet +3 7-15 feet +2 16-30 feet +1 31-50 feet 0 51-70 feet -1 71-90 feet -2 91-110 feet -3 111-150 feet -4 151-200 feet -5 201-250 feet -6 251-300 feet -7 301-400 feet -8 TDM -0 -1 -2 -3 -4 -5

TDM -12 -11 -10 -9 -8 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2

Target Activity Modifier Activity Fixed; unable to move Motionless; but able to move (sitting/standing) Slow motion; lt movement (crawling) In motion; mod movement (walking) Swift motion; active (running) Extreme motion; fast (actively dodging)

Example: Archie is firing a Long Bow at Bob the goblin. Bob is 250 feet away and standing in an open field not moving. Archie has W.S. Missile with +3 to ATT. Archie rolls a d20 ATT, and gets a 17. The Rac knows the goblin is about 4 foot tall (-5), and the distance is 250 feet (-5) (+0 for Long Bow) and it is not moving (-1). Giving Archie a revised Attack of (17-11 =6) Bob rolls his Dodge of 12 and the shot misses its mark. When Archie moves closer say within 75 feet and shoots. Archie will now roll an Attack of 17, (-5 size, -2 dist, +1 Long bow, -1 motionless) for a revised total of 10. An Attack roll of Natural 20 will always hit regardless of modifiers or conditions. A Natural one with any stringed weapon results in a broken string. Materials used for this supplement include the Holy Lands 1st Ed, Dark Ages book.
