The rules concerning use of sighting devices could bear a little discussion .

If a character uses laser sight - a little laser emitter that "paints" a red/green dor wherever its calibrated to aim -what would be the effects on the shoorting ?The rules seem calibrated for iron sights or long range scopes ,but there are implements to make shooting quicker and more accurate today .

the rules in the GAZETEER supplement say that you get 2 aimed shots instead of one in a phase where you have already aimed the previous phase .

But is this accurate ?

Shouldnt it rather be just a numerical bonus to the roll say +1 for aimed shots or quick shots ?Or maybe " 2 aimed shots if previous phase was used to aim and +1 to quick shots ?"

any other suggestions ?

What about optical devices such as Aimpoint,Eotech,Holosights,Trijicon red dot sights etc etc .What kind of bonus to the shooting do you see here ?

Please give some input .
