Multiple shot Penalty
I keep hearing people mention it, but I can't find it anywhere in the book- its not listed in the Index. Is there such a thing?

Page 55, it's a special weapon rule. States that multiple shots weapons (firing multiple shots) incur an additional -1 to hit.
I thought your repeater crossbows would not have a multiple shots penalty as they are fancy contraptions (at least for me as an O&G player ) but it seems that they do.

Re: Multiple shot Penalty

If it just says multiple shots, they can always opt to fire one or two, but they can't have some models choose to fire multiple and some fire one (as in the situation of two ranks firing on a hill, one being in short and the rear rank at long).

Re: Multiple shot Penalty
It doesn't just say "multiple shots," it says "2 x multiple shots"
Does that mean they get multiple shots twice? 4 shots at -2 penalty?

It means they can shoot up to two times, albiet with the -1.

Re: Multiple shot Penalty
Cosmo is correct in this. the 2x stands for the number of shots, since some weapons could have 3x or something.
