    Weapon ideas so far:
    - Silenced Gun: No loud bang, ideal for long range surprise attacks :) Can be crafted thanks to the Silence spell
    - Incapacitating Shot: Hold person spell
    - Exploding Bullets: Flamestrike spell
    - Shredding Bullets: Inflict spells

    Stuff like that :D Of course the specifics such as DC, damage and enhancement bonus need to be figured out and agreed with with the DM of whatever campaign I'll be playing him in.

    Oh, and a gunaxe sounds really cool. I'd definately look into that :p

    [​IMG] Don't forget rocket launchers! And flame throwers! And chain guns!

    ...Oops, sorry - I think I've been playing too much Serious Sam 2 lately. :xx:

    Actually, your idea sounds kind of neat (although I'll admit I don't know much about "true" d&d)
