First make it clear that Dodge skill have bonus from cover (p. 74)
Second , to avoid/mitigate the most annoying thing of binary dodge (that when you are caught with a weapon pointing at your face you just say "hey bastard roll for initiative!" and dodge his attack), make Dodge skill have penalty for open ground. Something like:
- 30 for being caught open ground at point-blanck range of a weapon
- 20 for being caught open ground at short range of a weapon (flat 10 metres? x3 perception bonus of the attacker? x2 PER + BS bonus?)
- 10 for being caught open ground (new default for open ground, as with update #5 you can Dive for Cover)
+ 0 for having half/little cover
and so on
Third, option for Called Shot. Something like "you can impose -30 penalty for you BS attack and make it harder to dodge it imposing -20 penalty to Dodge of the defender.
