Iron Kingdoms?

[xorial]

Has anybody done much in converting iron Kingdoms material? Specifically the Gun Mage. I found one document that does a lot of conversions, but I am not sure with their take on the Gun Mage.

I've not tried to convert Iron Kingdoms to Pathfinder. I would be interested in a Gun Mage conversion. I'd also be interested if anybody has converted the IK Ranger, since for my setting I need rangers who don't cast spells.

If I don't find a conversion of the IK Ranger, I will probably have to do it myself, eventually.

There are a couple of partial conversions floating around in the Google-blags, just do a quick search and you should find something at least a little useful.

This might be something interesting to take a crack at now that some of the firearms rules are out for Pathfinder. I like some things about the latest version, and some things about the IK Firearms.

I probably wouldn't take a look at it unless I'm running or playing in another IK game though :)

There was a spell-less ranger in an issue of Kobold Quarterly, and one in the Advanced Player's Guide. As a matter of fact, the APG one is listed as the Skirmisher Archetype here.

I could very well see a Gun Mage being an archetype for the Bard.. In fact, I might just do that..

I was just comparing the Pathfinder Bard and the Iron Kingdoms Gun Mage Spell list and unless you do a revamp to the bards spell list, and the bard is missing something the gun mage has OFFENSIVE DAMAGE dealing spells.

The bard spell list mostly consisted of Enchantment, Illusions, and a few Conjurations.

The Gun mage spell list has a heavily modified Sorcerer/Wizard List. I'm still going thru it to see how modified, but what I noticed in 0 thru 3rd level that most divination, some conjuration, and some necromancy spells where missing, but otherwise spell for spell same.

I also believe that on its own with either a modified bloodline system from sorcerer or some kind of gunslinger add-in would work for this class. Not taking the bard and modifying its abilities to fit this as a archetype.

I haven't tried IK in PF rules, but I think that it would handle a lot of the d20 problems a lot better. (After playing Warmachine, a lot of the IK characters seemed too mechanicky and underpowered...and a lot of the prestige classes were skewed.)

I did have a GM who converted IK and Warmachine to WHFRP and that seemed to work well...
