 States:

When you are using a melee weapon, Close range is extended to 5 meters instead of 3.

Does that include unarmed, with fists being the 'melee weapon'?

[Stainless Steel Devil Rat]

that's an interesting question.

But I think the intent that unarmed is considered a melee weapon, yes.  It's treated as one in every other way, so why not here.
