Suppressive fire is pn page 144. I quote the annoying part of the rule:
The area remains “suppressed” until the shooting character’s next Action Phase. so if a smuck shoots, it's suppressed for a full turn. If a guy with wired 3 shoots, it's suppressed for 1/3 of a turn. Or if the person with wired 3 wants to suppress an area, he has to spend 3x as much ammo to do so. Has anyone house ruled this? |
