Re: A successful 3 round burst

The basic way using ammunition of varying ballistics works is that you get two separate hit patterns, each centered where you'd expect from the ballistics of the particular round involved. At a range where the patterns are separated by less than the target size, the expected number of hits for mixed ammo is identical the number of hits from non-mixed ammo, and thus we should just resolve this as RoF 10 (skill 10, +2 for RoF, roll of 8, so 3 hits) and there's about a 60% chance that one of the hits was a tracer. Tactical Shooting produces 2 hits. At a range where the patterns are separated by more than the target size, you have to choose which ammo type you're trying to match, and if you hit, all the hits will be the same ammo type (generally the one you picked, though there's always a chance you'll miss by exactly the right amount for the other to hit). This should just base accuracy on the number of rounds of the correct type, but then prorate hits based on the fraction of bullets that are that type, ignoring the other type entirely (so 2 hits of solid, most likely). |
