[QUOTE="LuisCarlos17f, post: 8575360, member: 6802378"] And in the real life the firearms need a lot of maintenance (cleaning the dust within the canon everyday, for example). A simple spark, little as a match, in a explosives warehouse, or within the powder flask by the gunslinger, could cause a great damage. Or with low-level magic firearms could be cursed with bad precission. Have I said the idea of using illusory magic to create cover effects as the smoke grenades? Or magic to create something like historical paper armour. It has a time limit, but enough in the battlefield for at least one hour. [URL unfurl="true"]https://mythbusters.fandom.com/wiki/Paper_Armor_Myth[/URL] [URL unfurl="true"]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_armour#Paper_armour[/URL] * Firearms may break the power balance of the encounters. D20 system isn't designed for battles with elements from different technologic ages. Even litle children could test it, a group with nerf weapons, and others with foam swords. * Players could ask alchemic version of products from the current age, for example a bulletproof jacket by graphene. * Maybe there is a cultural taboo because using a firearm to fight would be dishonorable, and then the killed victim could return as ghost to take revengueance against the gunslinger. * Undead, constructs, elementals and other no-living creatures are practically bulletproofs. And guns aren't too useful with the swarms. [/QUOTE]
