[QUOTE="Nemesis Destiny, post: 5542450, member: 98255"] I've given out items like this before (under several editions), and they've ranged from boring to broken. I suggest if you find it boring and/or underpowered, that you spice it up a bit with additional powers. Perhaps once per encounter (or per day) it can create some "special" ammunition (like the magic ammo from, uh, was it AV2?). If it is some kind of speed loader attached to a firearm, depending on your firearms rules, you could have it speed up the loading process in addition to providing ammo. One of the variations I did on this was a broken as hell quiver that had three compartments - one would generate "trick" arrows infinitely (frogcrotch, blunts, flight, sheaf, capsule, whistle, etc), one would generate generic magic arrows of random enhancement (I think it was on a bell curve, so +5 arrows were uncommon), and a third compartment that would generate ANY kind of arrow, but again, at random. I would roll on the master ammunition chart in the back of the list of magic items from Encyclopedia Magica or whatever it was. Good times. The player was fond of firing into melee, and on more than one occasion accidentally shot the Paladin in the back. Usually it was a Flame Strike arrow, but he did nail him with a Paladin Slayer once (he made his save). Good times. [/QUOTE]
