Well it would only have 3 shots for a normal human. However we're talking about troll sized here.

Nice. May I have permission to arm some criminals with that thing in my game?
So, Trolls. Maybe I completely missed the it earlier in this discussion, but there's a sweet little rule hidden on page 163 of Arsenal under "Recoil and Strength". As for Troll weapons, well. I just started a game last week; my players are a Ukrainian SWAT team of sorts, and we have one Troll. (And a large, heavily cybered Ork.) They like Trolls in Europe, so I thought there should be some special weapons for them- and my ideas sound a lot like everyone else's. Not really too worried about player abuse. Fortunately, the ones that I may be less inclined to trust are playing characters too small to wield these damn things, not that they're entirely overpowered anyway: -Wrote up a heavy pistol chambered for shot-shells, (which feed from a dual-column magazine, heh) which was designed specifically with Troll border guards in mind. They're usually loaded with gel rounds, but can accept pretty much anything. -Also thought about the ways military designers would think- In the sixth world, there's things like advanced combat armour and hardened cyborgs to worry about- it seems appropriate that people would start thinking again about the merits of anti-materiel rifles. And with Trolls in the picture, these weapons suddenly become more versatile- and much more portable. So I also wrote up a sort of hybrid weapon which is basically a scaled-up M1 Garand- its en-bloc magazine is the size of a large brick. That said, I'm kind of leaning in the direction that the extra flavor adds more than the special rules on individual weapons. |

Pity, that Birdmans Weapon Systems are gone from the web . .
Not even the Archive has them anymore . . Basically, SMG sized .50BMG caliber weaons. And one .50BMG Single Shot Pistol. That is what Trolls should be using. |
