PRECONCEPTIONS Shooting, Hitting, Hurting Roll to hit as normal for a firearm. Roll damage as indicated by the dartgun. Soft armour counts as 1/3 SP, Hard armour counts as full SP against Darts. Roll damage and apply any that gets through. If the armour is penetrated (damage = or betters SP) then they effects of the contents are applied.
