Ballistic Skill (BS)
URL Copied!

Shows how good a warrior is with ranged weapons such as bows, crossbows or even thrown rocks. The higher this score is the easier a creature finds it to hit with missile attacks. Some monsters have natural weapons that can be used at range (they might be able to spit venom, for example) and their BS is used to determine whether they hit or not.
