Combat
Range Bands
Abstract tactical zones used in place of precise measurement. Every weapon and Talent specifies a band, not a meter count.
| Band | Distance | Tactical Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Point-Blank | 0–2m | Melee range. Impossible to miss a stationary target. Rifles are awkward. |
| Close | 3–5m | A few steps away. Conversation distance. |
| Near | 6–20m | Across a room or street. Standard combat range. |
| Far | 21–100m | Across a plaza. Handguns struggle; rifles excel. |
| Extreme | 101m+ | Rooftop to rooftop. Only scoped rifles are effective. |
Range determines weapon effectiveness, line-of-sight rules, and which Talents can target what. Most Psionic Talents use Near as their default reach.
