===Ranged Attack Modifiers===
These modifiers apply only to ''ranged attacks''. Note that melee attacks with reach beyond one square are NOT ranged attacks, they're just melee attacks with a longer reach!
* For each ally adjacent to your target, deduct 1 from your attack roll for ranged attacks. This is called a ''firing into melee penalty''.
* Ranged attacks suffer a -1 penalty for every ''range increment'' distance to the target. For example, if a weapon has a range increment of 6, then there is no penalty at 1-5 squares distance, -1 penalty at 6-11 squares distance, -2 penalty at 12-17 squares distance, and so on. This is called the ''range penalty''.
* Ranged attacks against downed opponents double the ''range penalty''. For example, -2 becomes -4.
