This comes out in two different ways:1) Guns were present in Europe during the Late Middle Ages. Their complete exclusion from fantasy that is otherwise based primarily on the Late Middle Ages has always struck me as being very artificial.2) Having rules for guns and other gunpowder weapons expands the kinds of settings that are possible with D&D. For example, Pirates of the Caribbean style high-seas campaigns work well with D&D, but need firearms in order to work properly.The other factor is that I have seen enough examples of fantasy with firearms that it doesn't strike me as something unusual.</blockquote>
