HW Expert

[kazuzic]

I was talking to Chris about making a character who would be a Heavy Weapons expert and a good gunsmith. His main weapon would be a revolver-type shotgun with a large almost axe-like bayonet.

Just thought I would make mention of him, any character sheets in the making?

Edit: Haha, ignore that question. Didn't see the other thread.

I assume you'll post something more extensive later?

Speaking of, I don't remember how many points you put into everything. I think I'm going by the 5 being normal system, but the system might end up being exponential, or alternately character growth will be exponential. I remember it being 75 among the various categories, but we may go 66 or even 60. I tend to like letting a PC make a character with slightly higher attributes in all respects, but that can make pretty strong characters. There are also obviously logical limits, such as racial beginning limits. (And yes, there are different races. But they are native races, not considered aliens, though that doesn't mean prejudice doesn't abound - it's the Old West!)

So, what, the shotgun would have a tommy-gun style like rotary loading system, a long handle, and a big ax? Strikes me you're probably a Rationality (though maybe Creativity), Stamina and Strength whore.

Stamina and Strength sounds about right... Don't play characters like that alot.

I know. So, assume 60 for the moment.
