Why would you do a short burst??? I realise youplay.it have rolled the normal medium bonuses from the boardgame into the combat value chart, but I can't understand why anyone would want to do a short burst. If perhaps, your guns jammed on a 6 with a medium burst then I could understand it. But in the rules there is no negative effect from either a short or medium burst - what's the point of doing a short burst?


Lewis guns (not implemented on youplay) have ammo. Each load has 5 "slots": you use 1 for a short burst, 2 for a medium, 3 for a long. When the slots are exhausted, you need to fly an S to reload.

Particularly if you are on a Bristol, which in a crowded scenario gets to shoot very often, you may want to use short bursts (I often do when playing f2f).
