[Siege]

Alright, I think I'm growing delusional from lack of food, but give this a skim and see just how far gone my thinking is:

Woo school

Two guns, same target
+1 TN for off-hand weapon
laser sights or smartlinks apply

Two guns, different targets
+1 TN for off-hand weapon
+1 TN for each meter seperating the targets
These penalties are cumulative;
laser/smartlink systems apply

Two guns, targets on opposite sides of the shooter
the flat penalty is +8, divided as the player sees fit
+1 TN for off-hand weapon
laser/smartlink systems apply as long as the +8 penalty is divided between both shots; if the penalty has not been divided, the targeting bonuses only apply to the unpenalized shot.

Logic: This represents how much attention the shooter pays to either target; the more the penalties are shifted to a target, the more attention is being paid to the remaining target.

Example: Jack pulls his two Colt Manhunters and proceeds to unload on Target A. He suffers a +1 Penalty for off-hand use, but resolves the shots normally.

Example 2: Jack pulls his two Manhunters and wants to engage Targets A and B, standing roughly three meters apart. In addition to the +1 TN penalty for off-hand, Jack racks up another +3 TN for splitting his Attention between two targets. He can allocate the penalty as he sees fit -- either +1 on one arm and +2 on the other or the entire +3 on one arm.

Example 3: Jack sees Target A in front of him just as Target B steps out behind our runner. Jack declares a shot on both Target A in front of him and Target B behind him. In addition to a +1 TN for off-hand use, Jack eats a +8 TN penalty. He can choose to divide this penalty among either arm as he sees fit.

Cinematic effect: Jack must either turn left or right while pointing both guns out, keeping both targets in the very peripheral of his vision (+4 against Target A and +4 against Target B, splitting his focus with an additional +1 TN for off-hand) -or- he aims at one target while pointing his gun in the direction of the other and hoping luck carries the day (0 penalty against Target A and +8 against Target B, +1 for off-hand).

Special circumstance: If the shooter uses a sense other than vision to acquire his target or has an independent eye to provide additional data, the player may reduce the +8 penalty by the bonuses offered by secondary sense.

Exceptional senses include:
Spatial Recognition: -2 (does not offer laser/smartlink bonuses)
High Frequency hearing: -1 (does not offer laser/smartlink bonuses)
Orientation system: -1 (does not offer laser/smartlink bonuses)
Independent Eye: Penalty reduced to +5, not +8
*Does offer laser/smartlink bonuses
