How about a military pump-action shotgun?
Also, what do burst and full-auto fire options do?

[ZzaphodD]

[garhkal]

Single shot as is.
Burst fire (all but heavy machine gun).. Add 1d damage, and a +5 penalty to hit.
Full auto. Like full dodge is only action allowed in round.
Depending on whether going full auto, single target, full auto damage spray or full auto suppression spray depends on what you do.

[garhkal]

There's more to a weapon than damage. Why would a character use a blaster over a higher damage projectile weapon?

Let's use some of those newer D6 stats and see:
From D6 Adventure: Colt .45 "Peacemaker" 4D+1 damage, 45 meters Long range, 6 ammo.

From D6 Adventure: Glock 17 9mm 3D+2 damage, 24 meters Long range, 16 ammo.

From Star Wars: BlasTech DH-17 blaster pistol 4D damage, 120 meters Long range, 100 ammo

From Star Wars: BlasTech DL-22 blaster pistol 4D+1 damage, 120 meters Long range, 100 ammo.


Now for some rifles...
From D6 Adventure: Springfield M1903 rifle (.30-06) 7D damage, 160 meters Long range, 5 ammo.

From D6 Adventure: AK-47 Assault rife 6D damage, 170 meters Long range, 30 ammo.

From Star Wars: BlasTech E-11 blaster rifle 5D damage, 300 meters Long range, 100 ammo.

From Star Wars: BlasTech A280 blaster rifle 5D+2 damage, 300 meters Long range, 100 ammo.


So sure, the projectile weapons do more damage. Some people's interpretations of weapons (including mine) may put the range at longer than a blaster's range. The big thing that factors in, especially when it comes to war and getting into firefights, is the amount of ammunition available in each. Even from the officially published stuff from D6 Adventure, the most a weapon can carry is 30 rounds. The pistols have vastly fewer rounds before needing to reload. How many shots can the person with the blaster fire before needing to reload? Three times as many when compared with a modern day assault rifle! At least FIVE times as many compared to modern day pistols.

So you can take your pistol that might do more damage when it hits. You can even possibly hit out to further ranges. But after you've fired a dozen shots or so, you're spending time to reload while the person with the blaster is still peppering your position with shots.

Any individual specimen of a weapon can be super fantastic. A sniper rifle of modern day might be able to hit someone at massively far distance away that couldn't even be conceived of in Star Wars. But those types of weapons are going to fire a maximum of about 5 shots before having to reload. Blaster sniper rifles might only reach to 500 meters, but they'll be making a lot more shots instead of reloading all the time.

An E-Web might not do as much damage as someone's idea of a .50 caliber, or have the range of a .50 caliber. But when you look at the ammunition capacity of an E-Web it doesn't mention a limit. It just states "power generator only". So while that M2 .50 caliber is reloading after 200 rounds or overheating after a continuous belt of 2000 rounds, an E-Web will still be putting shots out.

And I can pretty much guarantee that a power pack is going to weigh a lot less than a bunch of bullets when it comes to a blaster pistol or blaster rifle.

So don't neuter projectile weaponry in Star Wars just because you think a blaster should be better in every way compared to an M-16 or a SIG Sauer. Let the person decide whether they want to lug around a bunch of extra rounds just so they can do more damage. Not to mention they'll be reloading their weapon every 12th or 30th shot compared to every 100 shots of everyone using a blaster.

Plus looking at most armors, they give somewhere close to almos double the protection against physical attacks as they do against energy..

Heck look at stormie.. 1d en, 2d phys. As is most other imp armors. Blast vest 1d phys, NO energy (or +1). Bounty hunter armor, same as storm trooper..

That would be the Morellian enforcer, .48 cal. 6d+2 damage. BUT it also has range comparable with a heavy pistol. So the stormies would be ok staying back at range.
