Two dice if the unit did not move, one if it did (an Auxilia that moved two hexes cannot fire; a moving war machine cannot fire). Only matching unit colours score hits; swords, leaders and mismatched colours miss, and flags can cause retreats. The target never battles back or evades, and hills give no ranged penalty of their own.
