Ranged attacks can count as sudden strikes only if the target is within 30 feet.  With a weapon that deals nonlethal damage (like a sap, whip, or an unarmed strike), a ninja can make a sudden strike that deals nonlethal damage instead of lethal damage.  He cannot use a weapon that deals lethal damage to deal nonlethal damage in a sudden strike, not even with the usual –4 penalty.  The ninja must be able to see the target well enough to pick out a vital spot and must be able to  reach such a spot.  A ninja cannot sudden strike
