Gunpowder in AD&D

#1 Post by ToniXX »

I'm looking for info on gunpowder in AD&D (1ed and 2ed). I'm reading that there is talk about it in the DMG but I can't seem to find it. Can anyone who's more familiar with the subject give me page numbers or any other info?

Thanks

Page 113 of DMG mentions firearms of Boothill and a few conversions/warning.

I know, I know, late to the party... sigh. But I have Boot Hill and a clone or two I think Greg. If you need?
This is a game about killing things and taking their stuff so you can become more powerful in order to kill bigger things and take even better stuff.
Alethan: I'm good with NOT pressing our luck this time.
mjulius: That's how I know I'm home.
Pulpatoon: The whole point of PbP is to take the scheduling pressure off the game. We're just chatty because we're so eager!
Scott308: ...everyone should be reminded of just how wonderful the people they play games with here can be in real life.
Leitz: Quality and quantity wise, I think US is the best I've seen.
Paladin: I can promise terror, glory, and riches...or a quick and brutal death.
Inferno: Come on! That's was Vicar's Head, a completely different doomed village!
Rex: I can move to the wait list to let someone else into the game.

I'm even later to the party, but I do know gunpowder it is used in Pathfinder. It won't be an easy conversion, but will hopefully at least give you some good details and things to consider.

I did a quick search and found the link to their rules on Firearms, and also to their Gunslinger class.
