How close are your targets that you are shooting at?

Remember that your targets at gulf war will be at least 50 feet away and
probably more...that is if you are on the wall shooting at the tree...if
you are in the castle shooting indirect fire over the wall, or outside
shooting into the castle it is lots further than you think...
