being fired. Additionally, the targeting device attached or the existing one is calibrated.
MODERN GUNS
CHANGE BARREL
The damage of a gun is primarily determined by the caliber used. Changing the barrel is complicated and
requires additional work on the mechanics of the chamber in general and on the ammunition feed. This
augmentation can only be used once per weapon. EFFECT: 1 slot, new caliber as desired (leading to new
damage and range), caution: needs new type of ammo now. .50GL automatically conveys the “Thunder

In the case of double-action revolvers, the frame is filed out, a larger cylinder is put in, and the cylinder
transportation is adjusted. In the case of assault rifles, the magazine only has to be drilled out so a piece
can be attached. Depending on the weapon, larger magazines can be found. EFFECT: 1 slot, weapons
with a regular magazine capacity of 9 or less get magazine +1, larger ones get +3
A spur or knife is attached to the barrel. EFFECT: 1 slot. The weapon can now also be used in melee. The
melee damage equals that of a knife without the special qualities.
MUFFLED
Adding a silencer to the weapon and making some minor modifications to the mechanisms results in a
weapon that functions just as reliably as the original but creates much less noise when fired.
The difficulty of perceving the shot increase by 3C.
RIFLE BYPOD
It is also pulled from the butt stock, swung out, and snapped into place under the barrels. The rifle can
now be supported, which leads to +2D handling. The rifle bipod changes the balance, which brings -2D
to handling for firing when standing.
