Pop-up attack

A pop-up attack is a special attack maneuver in which you emerge from cover, move no more than one hex, make a ranged attack, and return to cover, all in the space of a single turn. This can be done with thrown weapons, firearms, or crossbows, but not with bows or slings.
== Rules ==
* You cannot aim in a pop-up attack, and there is an extra -2 to hit due to not being able to see your target at the beginning of the turn.
* Anyone targeting your hex with opportunity fire can attack you. If so, your only legal defense is a dodge.
== Addendums ==
It may be possible to make pop-up attacks with a bow if the cover is ample enough and the character can reasonably move quickly enough. Certainly Iotha or the archers of the Sherwood forest would've mastered this technique.
