Re: What Does Weapon Modifier Mean?
Thanks Fyron.
Weapon Modifier := 0
For Direct Fire weapons, this is added to the weapon's chance to hit. If negative, it will make it less likely that the weapon will be able to hit it's targets.
So this will only work on Direct Fire weapons.

Re: What Does Weapon Modifier Mean?
considering that no other weapon HAS a to-hit chance,that makes sense. Seekers and ramming always hit if they reach their target.

Re: What Does Weapon Modifier Mean?
Aren't "torpedoes" direct fire weapons? They do not seem to be seekers to me...

Re: What Does Weapon Modifier Mean?
you roll a d20 and add your BAB, STR mod, and the weapon modifier and that gives you your attack roll, if it is equal to the target AC or higher than the target AC, then its a hit
oh wait
this isnt DnD
