Description
An Indirect Weapon can fire shots in a high ballistic arc and is only assigned in conjunction with the Range Enhancement (page 147). **Examples** include Items such as grenade launchers and trebuchets, or a power or spell that summons lightning, a storm of ice, or a meteor swarm down from the sky above. Indirect allows the attacker to shoot at targets hidden behind buildings, hills, or other obstacles, or even shoot over the horizon if the Range Enhancement is sufficiently high. Indirect fire is tricky, however, and imposes a minor obstacle (page 182) to the attack roll. To effectively fire at an indirect location, the attacker must be able to locate the target in some way (sensors can be used) or someone else must spot the target and relay their position to the attacker.
