Remember that this is effective range. Troops may fire at double these distances at half effect. Fire at under 50 yards is doubled.
Leader Types
The leader value (0-3) is the deduction from dice rolls he gives (including his own Morale rolls). A '0' leader has a morale of 7. So a '3' leader has a morale of 10.
