Hi,

I was just putting together a table to summarise the weapon range BS modifiers when I noticed a hole.  Unless I'm missing something, there seems to be a missing modifier between a weapons normal range and twice it's range.  Here's my table based on the rulebook.

This is what I assumed, but unfortuantely this does not match what is in the book.  

According to the book, Long Range would be 180m and Extreme Range 270m. Leaving a hole between 91-180m.

Every iteration of the rules I'm aware of is;

Point Blank: 1-3m  [+30]

Short Range: (Less than Half Standard) 3-45m  [+10]

Long Range: (More than Double Standard) 180-270m  [-10]

Extreme Range: (More than Triple Standard) 270-360m  [-30]

Maximum Range: Quadruple Standard range.

Naturally, all these range definitions are not in the same part of the CRB, but are instead parceled out between the Armoury and Combat sections. Range 90-180m is not a 'gap' as such, the weapon can fire at that range, and suffers no penalty for doing so. It's more than the given Range sure, but still less than Long range.

And yes, I have CRBs in front of me for DH, BC & OW. It's the same in each of them. Exactly the same.

Cryhavok:

The upper limit won't extend into infinity.  The book mentions not being able to shoot 4 times a weapon's range.

Plasmafest:

If that's the case then Weapon Ranges are missleading.  If the weapon has a range of 90m but functions normally up to 180m then why not say it has a range of 180m?

Already we see a problem since Cryhavok and Plasmafest both interpret the rule differently.

Cryhavok: "long range from 91-180m"

Plasmafest: "Long Range: (More than Double Standard) 180-270m [-10]"

I see a problem.
