AMMUNITION

This section covers all the various ammunition types used in Imperial firearms.

 

Auto Ammo: Solid lead bullets sold in magazine designed for automatic fire weapons. These bullets deal between 2d6 and 2d8 points of damage depending on the firearm size they’re fired from. Typically sold in boxes of 20 at DC 7 per box.

 

Bolt Ammo: Large caliber sidearm bullets that detonated on impact. These bullets deals around 2d10 points of damage but maybe more or less depending on the firearm size they’re fired from. Typically bolts have a x3 critical multiplier. Executioner shotguns are modified to accept bolt ammo rather than 12 gauge ammo. Typically sold in boxes of 6 at DC 9 per box.

 

Large Atomic Powerpack: This is the sort of powepack that powers plasma cannons and multi-meltas. Damage varies according to the specific weapon it is connected to. A large powerpack has 20 charges.

Large powerpacks can be reloaded as quickly as for normal ammunition. A large atomic powerpack is a DC 23 purchase.
