What good is a gun in D&D? A wand of fireball beats a gun.

This is the first time I have seen you be against having a gun. I am sure I can get a wizard to cast a really amazing spell on my gun. While I am at it I also want an off road car that will never run out of gas nor needs any real major upkeep and a bazooka. Think about it, I can conquer any kingdom with modern tech with a few helpful spells.


Magical weapons are more effective. Even just combining existing ranged weapons with magic is far more potent than a gun. You can cast darkness on a stone and then have the slinger toss it in the direction of the enemy.

If you are up against undead, cast Sunburst on the stone and toss that at them.

Drow in Underdark: cast Sunburst on the rock roof of the cave, then cast Transmute Rock to drop mud that radiates sunlight to cover them.

They can do the same to you with Darkness, though..

What's the point of guns?
America sir. Also, wizards are autistic.

Racist human fighter is the way to go. Align with the dragons in Dragonlance. Bring down the fire.

This is as single player as you can get from what I understand. I haven't either.

I had friends that played a text game of some sort like that. Maybe that one.

If it was text, it was probably one of the Zork games. Those were great games too.
