[Flying Pincushion Games] Into the Breach: The Gunslinger Coming Soon!


Product Discussion

Dark Archive

I'm pleased to announce that the newest addition to the Into the Breach line is coming. This book marked my first go at lead developer and we developed with an eye towards expanding this great class into new areas.

There's a black powder knight who aims to tank and save his buddies. The boltslinger, to bring grit mechanics to games without guns, the bombard blade which fans of Final Fantasy will recognize immediately, an aquatic archetype, and four more archetypes too!

Three new prestige classes combine your gunslinger with wicked necromancy, terrible hexes, or martial arts katas.

I'm very proud of the new alternate class I wrote for this book called the Gungineer. A gungineer builds his own weapon with a point system similar to that of the summoner's eidolon. Start with an elongated barrel and reflex sight and work your way up to gauntlet mounted flechette launcher. Once you get to a high enough level the magnetic accelerator or fusion bottle might be up your alley. You can even integrate the gun directly into your arm! Mad science meets big bangs in the gungineer!

I'm looking for one or maybe two people who will be able to read the book and write a review for the three main sales sites. If you can resolve to make that happen within a couple days of receiving your free copy, please PM me with your email address. First come, first served!

I am a contributing author to this and I endorse this message!

Seriously excited to see this released into the wild and untamed hands!


Things that appeal to me:

1) Black Powder Knight. Most put gunslinger into the 'cowboy' box or the swashbuckler box. Having a dedicated gun tank knight archetype is something I'm interested in.

2) Boltslinger. While Rogue Genius games gives excellent options for gunless gunslingsers, crossbows don't get enough love and I'd love more opportunities to give more options in gun-less settings.

3) Bombard Blade. I've been thinking of this ever since I saw the Axe Musket.

4) Aquatic Archetype. I just got Cerulean Seas. Could use more Merfolk Gunslingers.

5) Gungineer. Iron Gods is coming out next month.

***Hexes, Necromancy and Gun Fu I'll take but between Secrets of the Gunslinger (Rite Publishing) and New Paths Compendium (Kobold Press) the themes are familiar. ***

Iron Gods was a big inspiration for Gungineer.

Bombard Blade doesn't exactly work with things like the axe musket. He has his own special blade that he builds. But the Qiang Seng gun monk is specifically built with those types of weapons in mind. We made a dragon tonfa and tekko-kagi pistol, too.

I meant just the general idea of using your gun primarily as a melee weapon. It has full BAB so I always wanted to make a STR Gunslinger with just enough dex to hit reasonably.

So does this mean we get new guns or are things like Dragon Tonfa part of class features.

There's a good mix of new firearms like the dragon tonfa in the gear section and not in class abilities.

The bombard blade in particular is statted in its own table in the bombard blade section, but it is not a weapon that only comes from a class ability. It can be found in an appropriately sized town (or GM discretion). It is a special weapon, much like the Black Blade's black blade, but it can be crafted or bought like regular weapons. It can be used (with some penalties) if you are not proficient as well!
