The sniper rifle is a weapon in Fallout: The Board Game.
Characteristics[]
While in a fight, the sniper rifle generates one reroll if the player character has Perception and one reroll if they have Agility. As a ranged weapon, it allows the player character to attack enemies one space away from them. However, the sniper rifle does not allow the player character to attack enemies on the same space while equipped. When rolling the VATS dice, the head side of the dice always count as a hit, regardless of the enemy's vulnerabilities.
Locations[]
The sniper rifle can be obtained through the shop.
Notes[]
The sniper rifle resembles a heavily-modified Fallout 4 or Fallout 76 hunting rifle, rather than the dedicated DKS series sniper rifles found in earlier games.
