Hi folks,
Players wanted to find out about somehow buying off the -4 per figure for shooting someone behind another player. I found a thread about not hitting the blocking player accidentally (Rules Exemption: No friendly fire) which is close, but they're talking about a level of teamwork that would allow the frontline melee fighter to zag just as the archer fires.
My first thought was a 1 point teamwork perk, but that might be too cheap for the value. This seems like a nice cinematic dungeon fantasy power up. What do you think?

Stelknecht, GM'ing DF again.
