A Gunslinger?


Product Discussion

Liberty's Edge

Is there a third party anything out there that has a Gunslinger type of prestige class? With Pathfinder allowing firearms (though not to a large degree I know) my wife actually had a concept in mind but there really doesn't seem to be a good way to make using a gun as a primary means of damaging viable. Thought about converting arcane archer to allow firearms as well but I wanted to see if there was one around.


Fighter with a ton of ranged combat feats and you could probably accomplish something similar and more sinister with the rogue class. If you need stats on guns, and can find a copy, then Dragon #321 had a great article featuring a number of different fire arms and firing mechanisms listed to match the different time periods.

Unfortunatly I dont know of any third party stuff featuring firearms

The Pathfinder Campaign setting had some firearms similar to whats in that magazine (I have the copy) and a gunslinger feat but with the limited shots per round thingy, not sure how it's worthwhile.


fighter is your best bet really, or a Rogue built for ranged and able to feint folks. 30' feet seems a good rang for the "gunslinger" type and the skills would allow you to take the skills needed to care for/repair your gun

The gunslinger does not work till ya get revolvers really. A tech that's outside most d20 based fantasy games. But the frontiersmen/ musketeer ya can do easy enough

edit: if ya have a revolver, rapid shot and TWF help with the feel of a gunslinger

There's the Iron Kingdoms Character Guide which has rifleman and pistoleer prestige classes. Expensive PDF though.

Check out Wayfinder #2 (PF Fan 'zine) when it comes out ... should be pretty soon.


my GM, Loopy's, site

It has some feats for gunslingers in the Dark Tower sense of the word. If you look through the gadgets you can also see how he handles guns.
I can't seem to find his rules for reloading right now though.

Done and done

I should say that I went to a used book store in Nashville the other day out of hopes to find something good. The very book I had hoped to find I DID, which was the Iron Kingdoms Character Guide.

As of now my wife is looking between a Pistoleer using two revolvers or a Gunmage.

Either way, this stuff is REALLY cool. Some of the stuff takes a little conversion based on Pathfinder's revolvers taking a move action to reload a bullet per chamber where as Iron Kingdoms has to make Craft checks, but I think it'll all work out.

I'm all up for hearing any more neat stuff out there though.


You might check out the Tome of Secrets for their firearm rules.
