This is for a more normal DnD game where you want to have magical firearms, but you also want to increase the mechanics for why they are much more rare than a +1 longsword. So, in order to craft the gun that fires a fireball you need the following:Craft Magical Arms and Armor (Prerequisite for craft Magical Firearms)Craft Wands (Prerequisite for craft Magical Firearms)Craft Magical FirearmsThe creation price for a given "clip" wand is: (Spell Level*Caster Level*375) + xp costThe creation price for a given "gun" is: (Spell Level*Caster Level*500) + xp cost"Clips" cost as much as a normal wand. Gun's cost half as much as a use-activated/continous item (that would fundamentally do the same thing an infinite number of times without a clip). That makes sense to me.To create a pre-filled magic gun, the cost is (Spell Level*Caster Level*875) + xp cost.The advantage of a Caster Gun over a Wand is that any character can use it.The advantage of a Caster Gun over a Use-activated item is initial investment, but the continuous item never stops working. Use-activated items would only be 125 gp higher than the 875 multiplier for a starting set.</blockquote>
