Here is a nice explanation of of how each kind of weapon is reloaded.
Firing[]
Here is how to empty your guns so they need reloading;
- Every weapon firing only one round is considered an aimed shot, and will always hit in close range regardless of skill.
- Player can spend a turn to aim even more carfully, weapons will alway hit at their maximum range.
- Weapons on Semi Automatic mode can fire twice, the second shot hits on <3.
- Weapons on Full Automatic mode can fire four times, D3/2 is the number of hits after first shot.

As long as Players aren't going for world record at throwing, they can throw wherever they want. Civilians however suffer D6/3 of scatter in meters. Both Civilians and Military must roll for bouncing nades around corners Number Of Corners vs Player AGI/3. Where grenade goes after failing a check is at DMs mercy.

- Securing the current weapon
- Holstering or dropping it
- Drawing desired weapon or item
- Readying desired weapon or item
Each step is interruptable. Players with military training must anounce they are switching weapons at the end of their turn or they will be considered confused and fumbling and suffer going through steps civilians do.
