Maybe I'm too simple a man, but in essence, isn't lock on already
included?
When we roll a d6 and there is some significant chance that a weapon
doesn't hit, what is it modeling? In a far future with
uber-sophisticated computers for targeting and nano-machines building
ultra-sensitive directional control, what keeps weapon firing from being
close to 100% succesful (barring ECM etc)?
I'd argue that when you have a 50% change to hit in a high tech future,
locking on is already factored in. If you want to have optional rules
that modify the roll further, fine, I think they would be fun.
Back to lurking,
