Modern Rules

For a more modern or near future setting, there are some assumptions that Dirtside make which don't quite fit.

Some of these are taken from/based on some WW2 rules for Dirtside.

Movement

Advanced camouflage schemes which include digital and thermal camouflage count as Stealth 1.

Dirtside assumes that all forces have high quality night vision. This isn't true today, and definitely wasn't true for much of the 20th century.

Night Sensors	Short	Medium	Long	Max Range
None	-2 Die	-2 Die	-2 Die	15“
Basic*	-1 Die	-1 Die	-1 Die	30”
Enhanced	N/A	-1 Die	-1 Die	45“
Superior	N/A	N/A	-1 Die	60”

The standard is assumed to be Basic sensors.

The typical standard during the Cold war was Basic, and during WW2 it would be None.
