Default Re: Night Vision Equipment

From my understanding, most NVG function more like a camera than a pair of glasses, so you'd be limited to the night vision level of your gear (even if your natural night vision is better). However, I think a lot of the sights in HT would stack. First off, most telescopic sights (scopes) negate -1 worth of Darkness penalties, due to them collecting light, and I think that would stack with natural Night Vision. Improved visibility sights similarly negate -3 (which I feel is excessive, but whatever) worth of Darkness penalties. And collimating/reflex sights similarly negate -3. All of those should stack with Night Vision... but they only apply when Aiming, so not very good for looking around, and in fact the improved visibility, collimating, and reflex sights probably shouldn't apply at all to spotting targets (they just make it easier to determine where you're aiming once you already have).
