[QUOTE="TailleferTheWise, post: 6605492, member: 6790098"] I have just uploaded [URL="http://www.enworld.org/forum/rpgdownloads.php?do=download&downloadid=1261"]Hidden Weapon[/URL] to the downloads area. UPDATE: [FONT=verdana]Modified the Armor Plating entry to be more balanced and updated the file. [/FONT] This is the first game-mechanic type thing I've tried creating, so PLEASE let me know what you all think, I'm really looking for some feedback to make sure I'm not creating anything too crazily under- or overbalanced, or if anything doesn't make sense or seems broken. And if you like it, use it in your game and tell me if it ends up being useful or fun! A little backstory: A player in my group rolled the "parchment depicting a complex mechanical contraption" entry on the Trinkets table a while back when he made his character. Our last session he asked me what was on it, and I had no answer yet, and figured I should get working on one for him.

You will notice there are slight mark-ups on the prices of items already found in the Player's Handbook (and Basic Rules), this is because they have to be customized or modified versions of the standard models to be able to work with the devices. A brief description of what's in the PDF: Weapon Variations: Mini Crossbow Springblade Upgrades: Armor Plating Bolt Doser Hollow Dagger Hooked Dagger Secondary Mechanisms: Caltrops Launcher Liquid Sprayer Quick Reload Clip The PDF also includes these tables: A table that list all the component pieces, their properties, and cost A table for each buildable item listing it's component pieces and their cost, the cost of assembly, and total cost assembled A table listing each buildable item, its properties and assembled cost A table listing compatable liquids and their damages and properties when used with the various devices Again, I look forward to any feedback, comments, suggestion, and critiques!
