Fantasy Guns Thread
Played a Mage game once where another PC had an "ammo on the go" gun. It was basically a blunderbuss, that could fire anything metal that could be jammed into the barrel, without ever damaging said barrel. Damage was always a base roll, no modifiers. So the lethality of the metal didn't matter one way or another.

that doesn't look terrible futuristic. Also, funny enough, that looks less like a European boardingsword and more like a Chinese Jian.
Thank you. I considered it having an origin in the Eastern continent like in our world but decided, seeing as the world has had intercontinental communication problems for 1200 years and magic is a 'subjective' thing, I felt 'why not make the history of firearms as wild as magic?'
As a side note: with magic having returned to the setting to meet a whole bunch of new technology that's developed in its absence, the setting is filled with people attempting magitech.
With mixed results.

A story about firearms which sounds fantasy-like. During the first siege of Diu in 1531, a 600 strong portuguese garrison was besieged by 70 galleys and 22.000 men.
After holding out for months, they ran out of ammunition, but still had gunpowder.
The attackers were quite restless when they removed a bullet from someone's wound just to find out that the european barbarians were shooting their own teeth at them.

>Whether they're old fashioned or modern, post firearms that look like they're straight out of fantasy
