I picked up "On the Run". Reading it, some of the NPCs left me with the sense that either there are some errors in the characters, or I misunderstand the weapons skills.
Some of the Grunts, for example, have Automatics skill, no Pistol skill, and carry Colt Manhunters. But the Colt clearly uses Pistol skill. I would be tempted to just assume those characters have Pistol skill instead of automatics, but what do I do with the guy who carries an AK (which uses automatics skill) and a Colt?

Can Automatics skill be used with Pistols? That would make it even more the go-to chocie for weapons skill than it already is. (And clearly, the writers were trying to differentiate the NPCs, since some of them have automatics skill and carry machine pistols, which makes sense.)

Thank you,
Joel Halpern

PS: I would try searching for historical posts, but the title of the adventure consists entirely of words that the forum search engine will not let me use, as they are too short. And the search enginer apparently does not recognize phrase searches (using quotes.) I don't blame the engine. This Forum is amazingly useful.
