Hey, revolvers are a great idea!
I've been meaning to convert Roland's revolvers shooting .45 long colt ammo. Stephen King, Gunslinger.

My very first gun as a kid was a .22 cal revolver. Had a ton of fun with that thing.
In this game that would probably do the same as the .22 pistol, 1D10. As a scrap built gun that someone cobbled together, I can't think of a weaker pistol than that old .22 revolver.

My players are more knowledgeable than me, but I listen when they say most book ranges should be absolute maximum and ideal should be 1/2 book listed.

That Ghetto Blaster is a monster!
If it can knock 150 kg (!) 1-6m then it does the same to the shooter..
action=reaction

It does remind me of the old Hellboy pistol, though.

The following is just my take on the concepts. My post is based on bad physics further gunked up with years of sci-fi gaming, books, movies and even radio(!), written more for drama than a firm grasp of reality.

I did think these were sadly missing from the hub rules.

Thanks Clockpunk, but unfortunately, statistics wise they're quite the same as normal relic pistols. With the ghetto blaster I wanted to put emphasis on the power of the biggest revolver out there and add a "mutant touch". Above that, the ability to knock away opponents ( and the user too

)is fun as hell, especially in mountain areas, where one can fall to his death.

Haha, absolutely - HackMaster is my main poison (game) of choice, in which Knockbacks are a staple feature of combat. I certainly intend to have the Spiked Ball hazard to knock its victims back 5-10 feet ^_^

Once knew a patent lawyer who played it. Thought that was telling and ironic at the same time.
