OPS and TACTICS: Supply Drop Vol. 12 How to Use This Book This Book Is a Supplement to the Ops and Tactics RPG System OPS AND TACTICS: Supply Drop Vol. 12 How to use this book This book is a supplement to the Ops and Tactics RPG system. This book is used to add new, interesting rules on top of the core rule book, in order to give weapons more flavor and more options to players. Supply Drop: Magical Weapons and Muzzleloaders This book details creating magical weapons such as rods, staves, and wands, as well as imbuing power within muzzleloaders. Cartridge and shell based firearms, because of their complexity, are unable to be enchanted, but the magical community, through various trial and error, found that simple muzzleloading firearms, such as matchlocks and flintlocks, were simple enough for magic to take hold and be used without issues. New Spells New Enchantment Spells For the purpose of the Enchantment Spell, Flintlocks, Muzzleloaders, Aetherstaves, Aetherrods, and Aetherwands are considered melee weapons. Base Cost: 2 SP – Formats a single qualifying item into a blank Aetherwand. Base Enhancements Aetherrod Format: 2 SP – Enhances the spell to also allow for the formatting of a single qualifying item into a blank Aetherrod. Aetherstaff Format: 2 SP – Enhances the spell to also allow for the formatting of a single qualifying item into a blank Aetherstaff. This enhancement requires the Aetherrod format enhancement in order to be taken. Base Cost: 2 SP – Grants any Enchantment on a Fine, Diminutive, or Tiny item with 1 use. The potency of the spell depends on the potency of the spell's enhancements. All Melee Weapons and Ammunition that are enchanted activated on striking a solid object, with a command word, or by pressing a sigil on the object. Base Enhancements Increase Spell uses: 1 SP per 1 uses. Increase Enchantment Size: 2 SP + 1 SP per previous increase – This increases the size of an object you can enchant. (From Tiny to Small, to Medium, to Large, To Huge, To Gargantuan, to Colossal) Permanency: 29 SP – This time constraint replaces the time limit on an item, and instead makes any enchantment that is cast using this time constraint, permanent. When Enchanting spells with permanency enhancement, the base cost of every school used is increased by 6 SP. New Equipment Lead Ball Ammunition Lead Ball Ammunition is the ammunition used in black powder firearms. They come in 200 round packs. Table: Ball Ammunition Caliber WP Cost per 200 balls .58 Minnie ball 2 .75 Ball 3 Gunpowder 16 oz. of gunpowder cost 2 WP. Matchlocks A matchlock musket is a musket that uses a lighted slow match to ignite the charge. The matchlock is first loaded by pouring gunpowder down the barrel, and ramming it down, followed by a projectile, which is most often a lead ball. The matchlock is then loaded with a piece of slow match, which is a piece of cord that has been treated to burn at a slow, consistent rate, and keep an ember, but not flame up. The hammer is cocked back, and when the trigger is pulled, the hammer flies forward and the match touches the touch hole, igniting the gunpowder and propelling the projectile. Because of their design, matchlocks can accept Enchantments directly onto the weapon, as well as the ammunition, and matchlocks can fit into standard firearms holsters, so as long as they would fit normally. Matchlocks are considered black powder firearms. Because the powder has to be loaded manually, a black powder firearm can be loaded in one of three configurations. It can be loaded lightly, which grants -1 damage die but reduces the error range by 10%, normally, which grants no bonus or penalties, or heavily, which grants +1 damage die, but increases the weapon's Error range by 20%. If a black powder weapon is loaded heavily, and fails it's Error Range check, it explodes, and causes 1d8 slashing damage to it's user, as well as destroys the firearm. Because of how black powder weapons work, the error range is checked before, not after, a weapon is fired, to see if the gun went off at all. One lb. Of powder provides 60 light loads, 30 normal loads, or 15 heavy loads. The Black Powder Firearms Proficiency Feat is required to load black powder firearms, and use them without a -4 attack penalty, however, any character with the Personal Firearms Proficiency can use a Black Powder weapon without penalty, but cannot reload them. Table: Damage Per Caliber for Matchlocks Damage Caliber 3d8 .75 Ball Muskets Vs Rifles: A musket is a smoothebore black powder firearm, very similar to a modern day shotgun. These are inaccurate at longer distances, but cheaper to make, and easier to produce. A Rifle has rifling, or grooves cut into the inside of the barrel that the bullet engages and causes the bullet to spin as it travels down the barrel. This increase accuracy, but cutting rifling into the barrel increases the cost. Also, due to the way rifling is designed, a smaller caliber has to be used in order to gain the most out of the rifling. Matchlock Pistol Musket: The Pistol Musket is usually used as a sidearm, sporting a 6 to 8 inch barrel. They are mostly suited to close quarters fighting and as last effort weapons. Matchlock Carbine Musket: This is a shortened version of the full sized musket, useful for close quarters battle. It does not have the range as a full sized musket, but it does not suffer as harsh of penalties when fighting adjacent. These muskets can accept a bayonet. When using a matchlock carbine musket stock against an adjacent opponent, the character takes a -2 penalty on all ranged attacks. Matchlock Musket: This is the full size matchlock musket, useful for longer range engagements. These muskets can accept a bayonet. When using a matchlock musket stock against an adjacent opponent, the character takes a -4 penalty on all ranged attacks. Table: Matchlocks Weapon Caliber Magazine Upgrade Range Rate of Size Wt.

SA L 160 oz. 14 30% None Empty Firearm with a bayonet lug and a permanent fixed stock 1 This weapon is a mastercraft weapon and grants a +1 bonus on attack rolls. All Firearms are unloaded and empty when purchased Flintlocks Flintlocks are very similar to matchlocks, but instead of lit slow match that is put to the touch hole, flintlocks instead have a piece of flint that, when the trigger is pulled, flies forward and scrapes against the frizzen, causing sparks to shower in the pan below, which is filled with gunpowder. The pan then ignites the charge, and the firearm fires. The entire loading process is nearly the same, except for a little gun powder is added to the pan so that it can ignite the charge. Because of how the charge is ignited, they are significantly more reliable than matchlocks, and can be used in wet or damp environments. Flintlocks come in both rifled and musket varieties, as well as a host of other odd types of configurations. Because of their design, flintlocks can accept Enchantments directly onto the weapon, as well as the ammunition, and flintlocks can fit into standard firearms holsters, so as long as they would fit normally. Flintlocks are considered black powder firearms. Because the powder has to be loaded manually, a black powder firearm can be loaded in one of three configurations. It can be loaded lightly, which grants -1 damage die but reduces the error range by 10%, normally, which grants no bonus or penalties, or heavily, which grants +1 damage die, but increases the weapon's Error range by 20%.

Because of how black powder weapons work, the error range is checked before, not after, a weapon is fired, to see if the gun went off at all. One lb. Of powder provides 60 light loads, 30 normal loads, or 15 heavy loads. The Black Powder Firearms Proficiency Feat is required to load black powder firearms, and use them without a -4 attack penalty, however, any character with the Personal Firearms Proficiency can use a Black Powder weapon without penalty, but cannot reload them. Table: Damage Per Caliber for Flintlocks Damage Caliber 2d10 .58 Minnie Ball 3d8 .75 Ball Flintlock Pistol Musket: The Pistol Musket is usually used as a sidearm, sporting a 6 to 8 inch barrel. They are mostly suited to close quarters fighting and as last effort weapons. Flintlock Rifled Pistol Musket: This is an upgrade of the pistol musket, adding rifling to the barrel to increase it's accuracy and effective range. Blunderbuss Pistol: A blunderbuss pistol is a muzzleloading firearm with a short, wide barrel that is flared at the end. It fires shot, and functions very similarly to a modern shotgun. Because a blunderbuss pistol has no actual caliber, It can be filled with any fine sized object with sufficient hardness, such as pebbles, lead shot, marbles made of clay, glass or steel, or coins. For each object put into the blunderbuss pistol, it gives a ballistic damage of 1d4, and the blunderbuss can hold up to 6 objects before being too full to function.

  • The Wakasa.Pdf
    The Wakasa tale: an episode occurred when guns were introduced in Japan F. A. B. Coutinho Faculdade de Medicina da USP Av. Dr. Arnaldo 455 São Paulo - SP 01246-903 Brazil e-mail: coutinho @dim.fm.usp.br Introduction : Very often the collector of Japanese swords becomes interested in both Japanese armor and Japanese matchlocks ( teppo or tanegashima ). Not surprisingly, however, the books that deal with swords generally deal very superficially with teppo: the little information provided on the history of teppo may not answer all the questions which may arise. In fact, most books mention only that the teppo were introduced in Japan by the Portuguese in 1543. Sometimes it is mentioned that this happened in Tanegashima , a small island in the south of Japan. Occasionally, some authors add a little more to the story; for example, I. Bottomley and A.P. Hobson ( Bottomley (1996) page 124) write that “the Lord of Tanegashima bought two teppo… for an exorbitant sum”. He asked his swordsmith to copy the guns. There were some technical problems which the swordsmith finally resolved “by exchanging his daughter for lessons with another Portuguese who arrived a short time after.” Also according to Hawley ( Hawley (1977 ) page 94), the governor of the Island tried to buy a gun: “…making all sorts of offers which the trader continued to refuse. Finally the governor, perhaps to soften him up, put on a big going-away feast complete with music, drinks and geisha . At this feast the trader got a glimpse of the governor´s daughter who was an outstanding beauty.

The Ottoman Gunpowder Empire and the Composite Bow Abstract The Ottoman Empire is known today as a major Gunpowder Empire, famous for its prevalent use of this staple of modern warfare as early as the sixteenth century. However, when Ogier Ghiselin de Busbecq visited Constantinople from 1554 to 1562, gunpowder was not used by the Sipahi cavalry who stubbornly, it seems, insisted on continuing to use the composite bow that the Turks had been using for centuries. This continued, despite their fear of European cavalry who used “small muskets” against them on raids. Was this a good idea? Was the composite bow a match or contemporary handheld firearms? Were Turkish tactics incompatible with firearms to the point that the Ottomans would have lost their effectiveness on the battlefield? Could the

  • The Introduction of Guns in Japanese History – from Tanegashima to the Boshin War – Oct.3 (Tue) to Nov
    Special Exhibition The Introduction of Guns in Japanese History – From Tanegashima to the Boshin War – Oct.3 (Tue) to Nov. 26 (Sun), 2006 National Museum of Japanese History Outline of Exhibition The history of guns in Early Modern Japan begins with their arrival in 1543 and ends with the Boshin War in 1868. This exhibition looks at the influence that guns had on Japanese politics, society, military and technology over this period of three centuries, as well the unique development of this foreign culture and the process of change that took place while Japan was obtaining military techniques from Europe and the United States at the time of transition from the shogunate to a modern nation state. An enormous number of materials, approximately 300, including new discoveries, form this exhibition arranged in three parts. Since the National Museum of Japanese History first opened its doors, the Museum has conducted research on the history of guns and acquired more materials, mainly due to the efforts of Professor UDAGAWA Takehisa, the Museum's curator responsible for this exhibition. As a result of acquiring the three most renowned gun collections in Japan -- the YOSHIOKA Shin'ichi Gun Collection, ANZAI Minoru Gunnery Materials and part of the TOKORO Sokichi Gun Collection -- our collection of guns, related items and documents is the finest in Japan in terms of both quality and quantity. This exhibition is the culmination of many years spent acquiring guns and the findings of research conducted over that time. * “S.N.“ (Serial Numbers) in this explanatory pamphlet show the numbers written at the upper-left of white plates for each article on display.
