Area Effect (1 hex)

[Anders]

So this enhancement is for powers that cover the entirety of 1 hex. You get +4 to hit, because you're targeting an area, and you use the rules for Area Attacks on p. B413, including using Large-Area Injury for damage and Dodge and Drop for defense. And of course, you get everyone in the hex - friend or foe. How much is it worth?

I'm tempted to simply make it +25%; that is +20% for +4 to hit and +5% for the rest. Does anyone have any other ideas?

If you check the uFAQ I'm pretty sure PK signed off on Area Effect 1 yard as +25%. Might be in Psionic Powers too now that I think about it. But I'm not near my books at the moment.

It seems plausible, but it isn't in either of those places, nor in PU4: Enhancements.

Edit: Found it in DF5: Allies, p9.

Yeah, it was was also here I was thinking of.
