optional Rule 30.9 Burst Limitations - Canvaschicken - 05-16-2014 12:36 PM
Hi Steve,
under this rule it says a short burst for ¼ move or less and a normal burst for ½ move or greater. What about 1/3 of a move ?
cheers

Hi Ross,
A long bust is 4 seconds in duration, a normal burst is 2 seconds in duration and a short burst is 1 seconds. Each game turn is 4.5 seconds so the time for a short burst would be ¼ of 4.5 seconds and would take ¼ of the FP Move. It is a way of equating time and distance.
Cheers,
Steve

Hi Steve,
I think that you may have misunderstood my question.
The question was - 1/3 lies between 1/4 and 1/2 but the rules describe what happens <=1/4 and >= 1/2 but not the bit in between.
what happens at 1/3 of a move?

Hi Ross,
Nothing in particular for shooting
If you use 1/4 (since it is the minimum) to 1/3 of the FPMove you meet the short burst requirement, once you hit 1/2 you may use a Normal burst and all the FP Move you get the Long, gun jamming burst. The 1/3 gets on special treatment since it does not fit the burst duration. Hope I answered it, if not please let me know and I'll give it another go
Cheers,
Steve
