View Full Version : Double barrel shotgun (edited) \/ ignore \/

When pulling the farthest back trigger to fire both barrels of a 12 gauge, double barrel, breech load, shotgun, and both the rounds fire, what hit location/damage rules are there for two shots being fired from two parallel barrels.

Could it act as a sweep with the -2, -4 penalty (if any penalty at all because of the parallel barrels), but only one location?
Furthermore, would the sweep still take a full phase?
Perhaps just treat it as a normal shot with two damage rolls
(2 1/6d6) for a 12 gauge?
Or is there a section of reading I've totally missed?

Thanks

(edit)
The type of ammo used would normally be slugs if that would help you answer the question, but this is for a Horror Hero campaign and the character will be using stakes fitted onto a 12 gauge shell from time to time.

=) Sorry for the double topic.

My answer to the previous post applies regardless of ammo. I'll definitely have to mention this in the forthcoming Dark Champions. ;)
