Game mechanics in this episode:
Speed shot is a sub-skill of Firearms. If you have the skill you can attempt to take an extra shot in a round (-2 for the extra shot, -4 if shooting a different target (within a 10 degree arc/skill level).
Critical fail (or botch) - if player rolls a 1 the roll is an automatic failure. If the LM rolls a 1, 2, or 3 on a d10 it's a super botch. The effect of such can be very painful. The LM will decide what happens as a result.
Using an action point allows the player to re-roll a failed roll OR add 5 to the result. Occasionally you can use it to make an enemy re-roll instead.
Warriors get 150% vitality at character creation, 125% after that. Monks and Defenders get 125% at creation and +1d6 at each level (on top of their standard amount).
Range: Missile weapons/firearms have ranges. At Medium range use the standard damage amount. At close range add 1d6 (unless otherwise specified). At point blank range at 2d6.
