Question: How does the "Trusty Pistol" work (an option for the Pugilist class).  It says: 

"Retired military: You get a Trusty Pistol (You can add +2 to

Defense Tests to roll 2d10 on Shooting checks instead of 1d20).

Why are you rolling Defense with the Trusty Pistol?  And I'm not sure how 2d10 would be any different or better than rolling 1d20.   So this feature is very confusing.  As written, I can't figure out what benefit it is supposed to confer.

This definitely needs better wording. The intention is you steady yourself for a more guaranteed hit and as a result, it's easier to hit you. "Raise your Defense difficulty by 2 to roll 2d10 on Shooting tests instead of 1d20" is a much cleaner way to say it. This choice would be for a "I don't need to be fancy I just need a better chance at hitting" kinda moment.
