Modern Weapons
The following weapons are unavailable in most settings that lack more modern technology and should not be allowed in conventional PathRunner campaigns.
There are also Modern Weapon Traits, Explosives, Other Modern Weapons and Modern Weapon Ammo
Firearm Basics:
One Handed firearms take a Half Action to Reload, are used in one hand, can be fired in melee and Grapple at no penalty and do not provoke attacks of opportunity doing so.
Two handed firearms take a Full Action to Reload, are used in two hands and if fired in melee they provoke attacks of Opportunity. They can not be fired in a Grapple.
Heavy Firearms take a Full Round Action to Reload and are used in two hands. However they require either being Prone, mounted on a fixed point or using a Half action to “Brace” the weapon. The weapon stays braced until the character moves. If none of these are met the attacker takes a -4 on all attack rolls. If fired in melee they provoke attacks of Opportunity. They can not be fired in a Grapple.
