Karry:
Then wouldnt it be more fair to write "RL 4d4 + something something" ?

I don't know about fair, but it would be less confusing at least.

Kornel didn't know about the splash damage himself and only found out when he started working on the game again. :p

TFoN:
Hah! A *slight* detail, eh? But this doesn't answer my question: why have I been killing demons with 2-4 SG shots at farther than point-blank range?

Firstblood:
3-4 sounds quite normal to me. 2 sounds lucky, but probably possible, just in my experience a close range shotty blast doesn't normally deal more than 10 damage (unless its point blank), but I don't use shottys that often, they are fired at me more. Pretty sure without experimenting that 3 shotty blasts generally will kill a Demon if you're not firing farther than 4 squares away.

Of course, if a Demon bleeds on the first shot, its understandable that it will take less shots to kill it, as bleeding damage is a hefty chunk out of a Demon's health (can be nearly 20% in one bleed).

Well, I never said they were in *perfect* health :) They were at least near full health when I tried, but a few had already taken minor damage. Minor means 3-4 HPs less, from a stray bullet or the outskirts of a SG blast.

I wasn't actively looking for bleeding, so I can't say much about that (it wasn't an active search for results, I had just happened to cut down circumstantial demons with a circumstantial shotgun here and there :) ). It didn't seem that they were bleeding often, though, and if they were - that accounts for the 2-shot cases pretty well.
