  • Rules and Options
    Rules and Options The author has attempted to draw as much as possible from the guidelines provided in the 5th edition Players Handbooks and Dungeon Master's Guide. Statistics for weapons listed in the Dungeon Master's Guide were used to develop the damage scales used in this book. Interestingly, these scales correspond fairly well with the values listed in the d20 Modern books. Game masters should feel free to modify any of the statistics or optional rules in this book as necessary. It is important to remember that Dungeons and Dragons abstracts combat to a degree, and does so more than many other game systems, in the name of playability. For this reason, the subtle differences that exist between many firearms will often drop below what might be called a "horizon of granularity." In D&D, for example, two pistols that real world shooters could spend hours discussing, debating how a few extra ounces of weight or different barrel lengths might affect accuracy, or how different kinds of ammunition (soft-nosed, armor-piercing, etc.) might affect damage, may be, in game terms, almost identical. This is neither good nor bad; it is just the way Dungeons and Dragons handles such things. Who can use firearms? Firearms are assumed to be martial ranged weapons. Characters from worlds where firearms are common and who can use martial ranged weapons will be proficient in them. Anyone else will have to train to gain proficiency— the specifics are left to individual game masters. Optionally, the game master may also allow characters with individual weapon proficiencies to trade one proficiency for an equivalent one at the time of character creation (e.g., monks can trade shortswords for one specific martial melee weapon like a war scythe, rogues can trade hand crossbows for one kind of firearm like a Glock 17 pistol, etc.).

  • THE HISTORY of the RAPIER the Culture and Construction of the Renaissance Weapon
    THE HISTORY OF THE RAPIER The Culture and Construction of the Renaissance Weapon An Interactive Qualifying Project Report Submitted to the Faculty of the WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science By Robert Correa Andrew Daudelin Mark Fitzgibbon Eric Ostrom 15 October 2013 Submitted to: Professor Diana A. Lados Mr. Tom H. Thomsen Abstract At the end of the Middle Ages, weapons began to be used not only on the battlefield, but for civilian use as well. The rapier became the essential self-defense weapon of the “Renaissance man.” This project explores the evolution and manufacture of the rapier through history. This cut-and-thrust sword was manufactured by artisans who had to develop new methods of crafting metal in order to make the thin, light blade both durable and ductile. To study this process, a rapier was constructed using classical methods. Upon the completion of the replica, its material properties were studied using a surface microscope. The project also included contributing to the WPI Arms and Armor website. ii Acknowledgements The authors would like to thank Professor Diana Lados and Mr. Tom Thomsen for creating the Evolution of Arms and Armor Interactive Qualifying Project. Their guidance and assistance were invaluable throughout the project experience. A huge thanks also to Josh Swalec and Ferromorphics Blacksmithing. The expertise of Mr. Swalec and others at Ferromorphics was key to learning smithing techniques and using them to construct a replica of a rapier in the Renaissance style. Mr. Swalec opened the doors of his shop to us and was welcoming every step of the way.

  • 1Jock Haswell, the British Army: a Concise History (London: Thames and Hudson, 1975), 9- 10
    CHAPTER 3 THE SOLDIERS: THE BRITISH FORCES The British forces that fought against the Jacobite forces during the rebellions were essentially two different and diametrically opposed armies. Although armed and initially trained the same, the two forces were very different. The first force to fight in the rebellions was the militia, and the second was made up of the Regulars in the British Standing Army. The former was trained yet untested and out of practice; while the latter was brimming with experienced veterans from continental warfare. This chapter will begin with a brief history of the standing army in Britain which will explain the existence of the militia; then it will explore the weapons and tactics of the British forces which fought against the Highland Charge. The British land forces had their beginnings in the eleventh century A.D. when the Normans brought the feudal system to England. Under this system, the Anglo-Saxon fyrd developed. The fyrd was a local military force composed of all free landowners between the ages of sixteen and sixty who served approximately two months per year and who could be called upon for defense at a moments notice. King Alfred, who reigned in southern England from 871 to 899, divided the country into military districts and required landowners who owned a specified amount of land to arm themselves.1 This was the beginning of the English militia, which was relied upon for the defense of the home front for the next eight centuries. The militia units were called upon during the threat of invasions, internal insurrections, and for service in Ireland.2 For the large-scale wars during the Middle Ages however, armies were raised for the campaigns or the duration of 1Jock Haswell, The British Army: A Concise History (London: Thames and Hudson, 1975), 9- 10.

  • Deadlands Armory
    Rifles Part I. Muzzles, Muskets & Minié Balls Loading a Flintlock Rifle For the first part of the nineteenth century, professional armies fought with the same smooth- bore flintlock muskets as their fathers and grandfathers. It generally takes an experienced soldier between twenty and thirty seconds to properly load a flintlock musket. First, the user has to unseal his pre-measured cartridge of gunpowder, which is usually contained in a paper or linen packet which is bitten open. (Because of the salty nature of gunpowder, this builds up a terrible thirst over the course of a battle, making potable water an essential part of any armed conflict.) Once the gunpowder is poured into the muzzle, the shooter inserts the lead ball, which is encased in a lubricated bit of cloth called “wadding.” Pulling the ramrod from its forestock slot, the shooter tamps the ball home, ensuring firm contact with the propellant charge. The ramrod is then returned to the forestock—unless a panicked soldier leaves it inside the barrel, to be fired along with the bullet! To fire the musket, the hammer is pulled to half-cock. A small pinch of gunpowder is placed in the “priming pan” located on the right side of the musket. The pan is closed to secure the primer, which brings a metal flange called the “frizzen” into striking position in front of the hammer. The hammer is fully cocked, the musket is aimed, and the trigger is pulled. The hammer dashes the flint against the frizzen, simultaneously creating a spark and pushing open the pan to expose the primer.

He was educated in Military schools and entered the Army at age 13. He specialised in musketry and was appointed an instructor at the Hythe Mus- ketry School. He was 17 times a member of the British team at Bisley Championship and a champion with both the rifle and revolver many times over. In 1908 he won a Bronze medal at the London Olympics in the teams Free Pistol event. In 1911 Wallingford was brought to NZ by Sir Joseph Ward (Prime Minister and Minister of Defence) to head up the School of Musketry in Auckland. He was re- sponsible for training the Expeditionary Force in rifle practice. While famous throughout the British Empire prior to The Great War, it was his exploits at Gallipoli that would earn him the nickname ‘Human Machine Gun’ and the title ‘Hero of ANZAC’. Wallingford was put in charge of the NZ machine guns and snipers and was awarded the Military Cross during operations near Gaba Tepe on the 25th April. Widely renowned as the best shot in the British Military he was regularly used to dispatch Turkish snipers. Not counting the machine gun, he shot over 700 Turks in the 5 months he was at Gallipoli.

  • Golok Walahir Sebagai Identitas Budaya Masyarakat Desa Sindangkerta Kabupaten Tasikmalaya
    d͘ƵůŬĂƌŶĂŝŶDƵƩĂƋŝĞŶ GOLOK WALAHIR SEBAGAI IDENTITAS BUDAYA MASYARAKAT DESA SINDANGKERTA KABUPATEN TASIKMALAYA T. Zulkarnain Muttaqien Universitas Telkom Jalan Telekomunikasi No. 01, Terusan Buahbatu, Bandung 40257 e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Golok is an Indonesian traditional knife resembling a machete that functions as an implement in gardening or a weapon in a combat. As it serves different purposes such as slashing, splitting, cutting and hewing, golok has slightly different shapes. In some regions in Indonesia, a golok is even considered as a representation of regional identity. Thus, golok is still made and used up to now. Golok Walahir originated from Walahir village in Sindangkerta, Tasikmalaya Regency. Unlike golok originated from other areas that are still produced and become regional icon, golok Walahir is no longer made due to the absence of its blacksmith. A number of efforts must be done to preserve golok Walahir, such as by studying the possibility of remaking the golok and blacksmith generation that will preserve the golok Walahir as an iconic identity of Sindangkerta from generation to generation. Steps taken in the study were identifying the golok Walahir shapes available at present, classifying them, and making replicas of each shape. The study focused on shapes, materials and production process. Keywords: Golok Walahir, Replica, Process, Conserve, Identity ABSTRAK Golok merupakan salah satu alat bantu tradisional untuk melakukan kegiatan berkebun, berladang, dan pada masa lalu digunakan juga untuk bertarung dan bertempur. Bagi sebagian masyarakat di Indonesia golok memiliki fungsi lain, selain sebagai alat bantu kerja, golok dapat dimaknai sebagai wakil dari identitas bagi sebuah daerah atau masyarakat.
