    The caliber one seems silly. A 9mm is .35 inches but has about the same power of a .45 but a .357 is more powerful than both

      Oh man, caliber debates. This shit is way more complicated than just X is more powerful than Y

        Nah the sig has way more feats if you read the lore. Honestly I think the power scaling is all over the place. Magnums are on fraud watch tbh haven’t done shit for feats in years.

        That’s not at all what it’s specifying. It says “don’t carry a handgun with a caliber lower than .40”

        It’s pro-45ACP / anti-9mm boomer gun shit. I have no clue where you’re getting this “smaller means rifle” from the image posted. Like yeah, typically smaller means rifle, but that’s not at all what the image says.

          Oh, yeah you’re right. I read that wrong. I was reading that as if the caliber of the gun fight is less than .4, don’t bring a handgun.

    anything worth shooting is worth shooting twice

    I’m just imagining a hunter double tapping a dead duck point blank with scatter shot

    As a psych nurse my rules for a gunfight are that the ER security checkpoint with the metal detector and x-ray bag scanner better have found and removed the gun by the time the patient arrives on my unit. One day they didn’t and I was VERY put out. Absolutely miffed. I wrote a very stern email in the morning.

    If watching Ukraine war footage has taught me anything, it’s:

    1. Bring grenades, the more the better
    2. Anything worth blowing up, is worth blowing up at least 8 times.
    3. Everything is worth blowing up
    4. Finish them off by chucking an AT mine at them

    I know there’s a necromancer who favours a 0.577 revolver for the finality of the effect
