Guns, D&D, and DDM

What's your stance on Guns in D&D and DDM?


I have not ever used guns in a D&D game I run. WhileI can do fantasy with firearms, I don't think D&D is best suited to it.

And I don't use DDM, so that portion of the poll is kinda moot, for me.

I'd hate them if they were included in D&D Miniatures. I'd think it a mistake of the highest order.

If you want prepainted figures with guns, get MageKnight.

Cheers!

Uhm, they are in DDM already.

A few guns are ok, I say make them nasty, almost as deadly to the victim as the wielder.

I guess I missed that, and didn't get that set.

In my campaign I have a group of orcs that have adopted the worship of the main human/dwarf god in the campaign (the sun god, Galador). They've distilled sunlight into "sunpowder," and they have developed sunpowder weaponry. Nobody else has the secrets of sunpowder yet, though. :)

As a niche thing, I like guns. As a main thing? Well, I'm in a very wacky campaign that is run by Alcar, and there are a fair number of guns in that. It's really fun, but I don't entirely think of it as dnd, per se. He uses a lot of variant rules, old 2e rules, homebrewed stuff, etc.
 


Whoops, forgot to add:

Regarding minis- I wouldn't mind seeing a few dnd minis with guns, but I wouldn't want to see many. A pistol-wielding giff might be cool, for instance (or, for my game, an arquebus-toting orc).
 

Thog like swords! Er .. Axe.

I don't like guns. (In my gaming, that is most certainly not a political comment! :p )

I don't mind if other people want to play games with them in it, so it isn't like they bother me. But it is a big fantast turn off if guns are brought into a game I'm playing in.

Now, modern or future ...well of course they'll be there!

Why? We already have Robots and whatthehellisthat Wrackspawns.

That sounds quite hostile.

Besides, MageKnight doesn't have pistol-wielding giff or Lantanese Gnomes.

That "you want X? Go play another game" line gets rather tiresome.
