    OK, considered that the RPG-2 is most likely going to be employed
within the first range band.  In the hands of regular troops, the RPG-2
will hit most of the time at this range.  But it seems like it would get
a major hit just a bit too often.  The d10 impact is probably not a bad
idea.

    OK, but I have a manual that states that the RPG-2 had three
sighting holes: one for 50m, 100m, and 150m.  It also states that the
RPG-2 has the same tactical value of the M72 LAW, which has an effective
anti-armor range of 200m.  I was thinking of restricting to two range
bands.
