New Skill: Forward Observer

FORWARD OBSERVER:

Characters with this skill are trained in spotting targets and adjusting fire for artillery of all types. Provided they are in contact with the firing battery or its fire control, a forward observer can attempt to adjust friendly fire. For each round of fire, the forward observer can report and adjust the fire coordinates by making a successful skill check. Each round of fire that is successfully adjusted increases the accuracy of the artillery fire by 1, up to the limit of the forward observer's skill level. If the skill check is failed, the artillery has fired off-target, and all bonuses gained from the forward observer are lost and the process must begin again. A forward observer can also attempt to call friendly fire on a position if he is able to observe that target point. A skill check must be made to successfully relay the target coordinates. Once fire has arrived, the FO can attempt to adjust it normally. INT-based.
