Description Inspired by the debate about whether guns should be allowed in fantasy games.

I say why not, and who's gonna argue with a gun-toting Drow!

Oh hell yes. I heartily support modern-, post-apocalyptic- or futuristic takes on fantasy and think it should be done more often.

Arggggh the complaints. >.< Usually those sort of complaints come across as being akin to, to quote a friend of mine, 'complaining about a ham sandwich because it's not a cheese sandwich'...

I think you can anything with fantasy characters,and we will give them guns if we want to!

I'm not a big fan of magic and airy-fairy stuff.

Totally, me too! I'm running a game at the moment, a sort of post-apocalypse sci-fi/fantasy mashup. While there is some magic in the game, it's treated as an additonal branch of weird fringe-science and isn't really accessible to the player characters, at least, not unless they pull some very strange shit.

I'm not a fan of the airy-fairy either. I prefer me big men with guns.

Yeah, I don't see why pirates in fantasy RPG's etc shouldn't have flintlock pistols or Samurai shouldn't have muskets. D&D do have alchemy, it wouldn't be too hard to imagine that the alchemists in that Universe had invented black powder.

I said the same. If they have cannons and stuff then they they can have guns.

In WFRP there are guns, and fantasy characters can show up in D20 Modern, so this is entirely possible.

Yeah, there's a bit of concern from people over the new gunslinger and samurai class that pathfinder might do. Some people don't want guns and others don't want Asian characters because of weeaboos!

LoneStranger In reply to gorgonbreath [2011-02-06 00:06:02 +0000 UTC]

Meh, they had a samurai class at least once in 3.5 D&D. I don't care too much.

It will be interesting to see what they do for the Gunslinger.

Yeah the gunslinger looks cool, Samurai and ninja are overrated.

I think it's fun to mix traditional fantasy characters with a more science fiction setting, since i'm not too keen on magical stuff.

Yeah why not! After all I've heard a lot of people claiming that steampunk is fantasy and in steampunk there's definitely guns. So bring 'em in!

Some people don't like guns, they prefer magic. But i think there's room for both.

That's true.
Although it's very hard to own a gun here legally. Farmers are allowed them, but only for specific reasons, and ordinary people can have them but they must belong to a shooting club.The shooting clubs keep all the guns locked away, no one is allowed to take them home.
Criminals can get them, but gun crime is still not that bad.

But the fantasy and guns thing was about table top games.

In the immortal words of Bobcat Glodthwait "either gun laws work, or British people can't hit the broad side of a f%^#ing barn!"

Guns in games are ok.
Guns for everybody, I'm not so sure about that one!

That's probably true! We couldn't hit a barn door from inside the barn!
