"A lot of thought and on-board testing has been done to more fully capture what a sniper rifle is capable of. So at Genesys Games our playtesters sat down (many months ago) to make certain that we had a grasp on just how Sniper Rifles would work for The Genesys Project.

Tango, when someone says "There is an app for that", well, for long shots, there is a ballistics app you can take with you on your iPhone. A shooter can use the app to hit their distant target.

The app calculations determine trajectory, bullet drop, projectile energy level, velocity, wind drift, spin drift (rotation of the earth), and Coriolis effect (curvature of the earth). There is even an advance system with Heads Up Display for quick elevation and wind corrections.

So, keep your head down 😄 you never know when The Genesis Project may go live. Maybe the sniper rifle with app calculations should be +3.
