Homebrew Western need feedback


Homebrew and House Rules


The two classes below were created for fantasy old west (i.e. includes Dwarves, Elves, etc.) Could anyone tell me if they appear balanced.

Gunslinger
Maverick

It's really hard to read these. Also, you do know there already exists a gunslinger class, right?

My is not based on Pathfinder but is closer to Horizon's Spellslinger game and the d20 version of Deadlands.


I'm seeing some unexplained homebrew stuff within your gunslinger, such as tumble as a class skill and gaining a bonus to quick draw.

This document is a huge and difficult to read wall of text. I did not read the whole thing. Please add blank lines between entries to make it easier to read.

True grit seems very powerful for a 1st level ability. You'd bonus feat class feature would be much simplified if you said "at 2nd level, a gunslinger gains a combat feat as a bonus feat." and got rid of the massive list of combat fears.

Yeah, this is obviously not Pathfinder material. You're using rules and skills that no longer exist.

Should I have post it in another forum.


I don't think there's another forum on this board that is more appropriate, but its still a Pathfinder forum and you're introducing and asking for a response on non-Pathfinder rules based classes.

Not that you care, but I've developed and am developing more PF based class archetypes designed for an intended Old West setting for a home game, including the Shootist, a gunslinging magus archetype - and I may eventually publish the archetype, with other archetypes, rules and a full setting with an included one-shot adventure. While its good to get inspiration from other games, like Deadlands, I'd never port its rules directly, as its a different game, and ask for feedback on a PF specific board.
