Modern weapons? Gear?


Homebrew and House Rules


Yeah, let's make some because, why the heck not? Some of these obviously aren't "modern" but rather sci fi gear, but eh, why not?

Modern pistols? (Glachs, nine mills, etc etc?) I figure the only thing that would change from a revolver would be the carrying capacity. Would they reduce in damage, or stay the same? Or increase?)

Sniper Rifles?

Modern shotguns?

Sawed-off shotguns? (I actually had the idea to take the double barreled shotgun, increase its damage to a d10, but reduce its range to something pitiful, like 5 feet, or even 8 feet or something. Would you do it differently?)

Chainsaws/power tools?

Machine guns? SMGs? (These seem like a real challenge to me. How do you get the automatic nature of them? Multiple attacks? Higher attack bonus? Lower attack bonus?)

Various attachments? Scopes? Laser sights? Silencers?

Tasers? Mace?

Tranq-based weapons?

Explosives? Grenades, dynamite, flashbangs, etc?

Rocket launchers? Bazookas? Grenade launchers?

Tanks?

Kevlar?

Nifty stuff? Night vision goggles? Heat vision? Radar technology? Etc?

Stuff I haven't thought of, but you'd want to stat up? Go ahead!

EDIT: I completely forgot the future stuff!

Laser blasters?

Phasers?

"laser swords"(cough cough)?

Jetpacks? Rocket boots?

Anything else?


For modern weapons you might want to check out the super genius games product: Anachronistic Adventures The Enforcer. It has rules for modern weapons.

As for the rest, I'd think you could find a solid foundation in d20 modern/future. Pathfinder isnt such a big divergence from 3.5, so most of that would probably work just fine.

Some friends of mine have been working on a modern version of Pathfinder (a la D20 Modern). It's got a heap of modern weapons and armor as well as alternate classes that fit in with a modern milieu. They're still working on the final product but the preview version covering levels 1 to 4 is out and it's just a few bucks. i'm not sure what Paizo's policy is on links to other websites but if you're interested, just send me a message.
