Early Adopter


The XM157 is a 1-8x power TL8 Computer Sight (High Tech, p. 157) without the Night Vision or Infravision; but with both a visible and IR Integral Targeting Laser (Shoulder Arm) (High Tech, p.156-157). It has a Telescopic Sight (High Tech, p. 155) with an illuminated reticule (High Tech, p. 155) and an integral compass (High Tech, p. 52).

$10,800, 4.9 lb., 2xXS/350 hrs.

What that all means...

If you're not aiming (GURPS aim maneuver, not just looking down the sights) and can see the targeting laser dot, you get a +1 to your skill.

If you do aim, you get the Acc bonus of the weapon and up to +3 from the magnification (but you have to aim for a second per plus) and the computer will give you an additional +3 to hit.

Telescopic sights light gathering ability cancels -1 in darkness penalties and the illuminated reticle cancels an additional -2.

The compass tells you what direction you're pointing.
