The range bonus changes discussed will, unless objections are raised, make it into the next experimental for testing.

To Do:
[..]
2) all non-variable power scopes will need to be checked so that range bonuses are consistent with the changes

Somehow i overlooked before that you increased the vision boni compared to fixed power scopes.

That's funny, i found the spotting range to be too low for my taste and increased Daylight+Brightlight boni by a factor of 1.25 (rounded down) ; for scopes with a Mag-Factor of at least 3.5, that is. I didn't change Night+Cave boni.
The reason i picked a larger percentage increase was quite simply greedyness in my theoretical mind games:
- snipers never get to use the max range of their weapons ; still won't with my larger boni, but at least get past 50 tiles with all high power scopes
- why should a sniper effectively "have" to pick Scouting trait ?
I was considering a progressive factor, like 3.5 and 4x scopes getting a flat +5% ; and then start with a factor of 1.25 for 4.5x scopes and poetentially arrive at a factor of 1.5 or 1.6 for 10x scopes ; but with limited freetime and a lack of gaming practice i scared away from that.

I'm currently in my second game with the vision extension and so far like it pretty much. I have to confess though that in my first game i played without a sniper for long periods, thus anything past a 6x scope is still in testing.
