Character Size and Autofire

[m3nt0r]

Hello, i wondered about the impact of the size of an opponent as an attacker in combat,the Autofire rules stress that you can cover with an autofire attack an shots x 2m line,is there any way in the rules that this can be offset for very big or small opponents to match their size? Thank you in advance

The Autofire rules don't specifically take the size of targets into account. Instead, the rules address size in the Size Powers and Target Size modifiers, providing bonuses to hit large targets and penalties to hit small targets. Nor does the size of a target vary the "size" of the area that Autofire affects/fires into.

 

However, in a campaign where this issue arises frequently, I could certainly see the GM coming up with a new, customized-for-his-campaign Autofire Skill that would allow a character to use Autofire to cover smaller and(/or) larger "areas" as it's sprayed around the room.
