You fire from the hip, slapping the hammer with your off-hand to spray a hail of bullets.

Once per round, for 2 Action Points, while wielding a fully loaded one-handed firearm, choose a 10-foot-by-10-foot area within your weapon's range. Make one attack roll with the firearm. Each creature in the area must make a Reflex Save against your attack roll.

  • Critical Success: No damage.
  • Success: Half damage.
  • Failure: Full weapon damage.
  • Critical Failure: Double weapon damage.

Roll damage once and apply it to all affected creatures. After using this technique, the firearm's ammunition is completely expended and the weapon must be reloaded before it can be used again.

Push: You may take 1 Strain to use this technique for 1 Action Point instead of 2.
