FF2. Work out firefight bonuses

Each player receives bonuses in the firefight that are dependent on how certain factors compare for each side.

Your Firepower total from the previous step is important, but you don’t make direct use of it to resolve the firefight — rather, you compare your totals and the player that has the higher total gets a bonus. You’ll combine this with other bonuses and use your overall bonus in the the assault resolution roll that you’ll make in the next step.

Table 1. Assault bonuses table (firefight)

The enemy has more Blast markers than your side	+1

Your side’s Firepower total is at least triple (3x) that of the enemy	+3*
Your side’s Firepower total is at least quadruple (4x) that of the enemy	+4*
*These modifiers are not cumulative — use only the best one that applies.
