Thinking about getting the Weather Effect Marker Set from Litko to use on outdoor maps to help represent various battlefield conditions.
ideas for effects:
SNOW: LoS is 3 circles away max. (unless character ignores smoke w/ equip)
RAIN: Fire (from grenades, flamethrower burn, volatile) lasts until end of turn only.
FOG: LoS is adjacent only (unless character ignores smoke w/ equip)
WIND: Smoke lasts until end of turn only. Fire lasts an additional turn.
SUN: Range for Mental Attacks & Duels is reduced by 2.
So right before the Setup Roll, roll 1d10 to determine the condition for the game:
Priory: 1-4: Snow / 5-7: Wind / 8-10: Sun
Gevaudan: 1-4: Fog / 5-7: Rain / 8-10: Wind
Crash Site: 1-4: Rain / 5-7: Fog / 8-10: Sun
