Repeating blasters are amongst the most devastating anti-infantry weapons in the Star Wars universe. These weapons
may be fired in two ways, concentrated or blanket. Concentrated fire mode represents firing on a single target, whilst blanket fire mode represents firing on multiple targets within an area.
Repeating Blasters may hit up to three targets within a 5m area in blanket fire mode, roll to hit for each shot in the same action phase, normal multiple action penalties apply but blanket fire mode only counts as one action. Damage is worked out as below. The stats provided by WEG for Light Repeaters and Heavy Repeaters (E-web) remain the same for concentrated fire. For blanket fire use the following weapon damage adjustments.
Light Repeater: 4D Damage
Medium Repeater: 5D Damage
Heavy Repeater: 6D Damage
Effectively the damage is 2D less than normal damage.
Notes:
- Players must declare before firing their weapon what mode of firing they'll be using. They must also declare who is the original target before firing.
- Both concentrated and blanket fire modes use one ammo.
- They must also declare who is the original target before firing.
