[QUOTE="Yune Vangelov, post: 7214952, member: 6905609"] Much of it. I have been redoing as much of the D20 Modern book as I can. As I worked on it I found the contributions of Ed Wilson, as well. He has a wealth on Google Drive, that was very helpful in offering alternative to options I hadn't thought of. I do not offer the Sharpshooter feat to my players, and I am a bit stingy with abilities that eliminate cover. Here are a few snippets I have from my documents: [B]Firearms[/B] The most basic form of attack with a firearm is a single shot. One attack is one pull of the trigger and fires one bullet at one target. Personal firearms proficiency allows you to add your proficiency bonus to this sort of attack when you take a bonus action to Aim. Because of the weapon's unwieldy shape and size, you suffer disadvantage when attacking with a longarm against adjacent opponents. [B]Weapon Qualities[/B] Automatic. A firearm that has the automatic property can make a normal single-target attack, or it can spray a 10-foot-cube area. Each creature within the affected area must make a Dexterity save (DC 8 + your Dexterity modifier) or take the weapons normal damage. On a successful saving throw, the creature only takes half the weapons damage, or no damage if they have cover. This action uses ten pieces of ammunition. Special. You can fire a short three-round-burst at a single target. When you take the Attack action on your turn, you can use a bonus action before the attack roll to deal an additional dice of damage. This action uses three pieces of ammunition. [B]Rulings[/B] Suppressive Fire. as an action you can lay down suppressive fire, imposing disadvantage on attacks by targets in the targeted area. As a reaction, you can make an attack on a target suffering disadvantage from your suppressive fire. [B]Feats[/B] AUTO-FIRE EXPERT Prerequisite: Proficiency with personal firearms, 4th level You are well versed in the use of automatic firearms and controlled bursts, gaining the following benefits: • Your proficiency bonus is added to the DC of your area attack with automatic firearms. • When targeting an area with automatic fire, you can target an area forming a line 20 feet long and 5 feet wide. • You can fire a short burst at a single target. When you take the Attack action on your turn, you can use a bonus action before the attack roll to deal two additional dice of damage. This action uses five pieces of ammunition. PISTOLERO Prerequisite: Proficiency with personal firearms You've developed a practiced hand with smaller firearms. You gain the following benefits: • You can reload weapons with internal or cylinder magazines as an action or a bonus action. • If you hit a creature within 5 feet of you with a ranged attack on your turn, that creature can't take reactions until the end of this turn. • When you use the Attack action and attack with a one-handed weapon, you can use a bonus action to attack with a one-handed firearm you are holding. I have some of the more complete segments I have been working on in my drive. Its a constant work in progress but feel free to check it out, and please, share any thoughts. Find me on Discord; Haunts#1456 [URL]https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0ByXtJdtw96ceTHJhLXF4UGk1blU?usp=sharing[/URL] Be warned, the formatting will be off, as I used the fonts from the D20 Modern book when I wrote them up.
