Default Range Bands

I just had another thought... two in one day!

I remember from playing Traveller with the LBB you used range bands rather than a grid. Take a sheet of lined paper and designate every line as 10, 25, 50 meters or whatever and handwave any lateral distance among the group as you're really only concerned with range to the enemy. This only really works with open terrain and road chases as you're not concerned with terrain and goes completely to pieces with area effect weapons, but it might help speed up small arms and chases.

Chris, again
