Sweep, i.e. one attack on the three forward hexes was a common attack type with certain fighting style in my fantasy Hero campaign. Was effective with certain weapons. There was a monster that coordinated a weapon strike, and a tail strike, to clear all the hexes around them.

Too much of an RPG addict to stop yet, but since I am out in the Wine Country, in a retirement community, I have had to move my gaming to Virtual tabletops and audio on Discord. IT wasn't a last session, as more of a different venue to play. I can no longer travel, due to kidney Dialysis, So I do what I can to play. Unfortunately it's not Hero. It's mostly Pathfinder these days. So at least I still get to play.

Upgrade A mechanic/Vehicle restorer who restores and hot rods 20th Century Vehicles, and his lovely wife are ambushed when their 21st Century Autonomous vehicle flips over in a bad neighborhood, leavig the mechanic Paralyzed, and the wife dead. THe police can do nothing as the Police drones recording the crime is hacked. The mechanic's client, a inventor genius offers THe Mechanic a way to walk again by bridging the spinal injury with an A.I. chip. It turns out the chip is self aware, and confers super reflexes upon the Mechanic. Revenge ensues. I have been watching several Cyberpunk and near future movies on Netflix and will post more here when I find them.

Look for the Espionage adventures as well.

In a future distopia, where people with minor super powers are made unemployed by new robots. Apparently they started with Robot Cops, but the number of fatalities was unacceptable, so they moved to robot Dogs that supposedly use non-lethal methods to subdue criminals, however a corrupt cop working with a Drug Kingpin modified one of the robot dogs to inject poison into people. A VIctims little sister is a powerful psychic who can aonctrol electricit and she teas up with an Ex-dcon to get back at the corrupt cop that killed them. Currently on Netflix.

Apparently the OGL SScandal is raising its head again, and they want to get rid of D&D BeyondL

I could see 2D6 with a +q stun mod as the bullets are wide depending on if it’s pre- 1968, or after. Backyard ballistics made some fresh ammo but did not have entirely successful accuracy. Recent ammo I have seen available had steel strips angled from the back on a spring steel washer pressed into the back to impart the spin. I haven’t seen those used.

The Gyrojet works well in a vacuum environment. Its problem isn’t that is so much cheap but light. Too light apparently as the detaching barrel. Brandon Herrera’s video showed a lot greater accuracy than the Demolition Ranch Gyrojet. As to know it listed in 3rd Edition Hero As 1d6 +1
