shooting & shooting phases
All Shooting is performed with a twenty-sided die (D20)
and luck rolls with a six-sided die (D6).
One Shoot requires one Action Point. Each character is
able to shoot twice every turn if they have the AP to do
so. A Gun is always attached to the character and can't
be changed unless there are special circumstances.
Different Guns use different amounts of bullets per shot.
To mark the shot, the player slides the Bullet Token
down the Bullet Track.
