A very quick resolution, would be to roll the normal attack & have the
friendlies (only) roll the normal range die with a +2 die shift.  This
means rolling 1 extra range die, but will make people watch their fire
lanes. (You point that gun at me FUNK & I'll blow your fr***ing head
off!) :)

Since you're already measuring the range to your primary target, it will
only add seconds to normal fire resolution.
