Ammunition: You can use a weapon that has the Ammunition property to make a ranged attack only if you have ammunition to fire from it. The type of ammunition required is specified with the weapon’s range. Each attack expends one piece of ammunition. Drawing the ammunition is part of the attack (you need a free hand to load a one-handed weapon). After a fight, you can spend 1 minute to recover half the ammunition (round down) you used in the fight; the rest is lost.

Misfire: Whenever you make an attack roll with a weapon that has the Misfire property, and the dice roll is equal to or lower than the weapon’s Misfire score, the weapon misfires. The attack misses, and the weapon cannot be used again until you spend an Action to try and repair it. To repair your firearm, you must make a 🛠️Tinkers Tools check (DC = 8 + misfire score). Failure: The weapon is broken and must be mended out of combat at a quarter of the SP cost of the weapon. Creatures who use a weapon that has the Misfire property without being proficient increase the weapon’s misfire score by 1.

Range: A Range weapon has a range in parentheses after the property. The range lists two numbers. The first is the weapon’s normal range in feet, and the second is the weapon’s long range. When attacking a target beyond normal range, you have DISADV on the attack roll. You can’t attack a target beyond the long range.

Two-Handed: A Two-Handed weapon requires two hands when you attack with it.

Mastery: Slow: If you hit a creature with this weapon and deal damage to it, you can reduce its 🏃‍♀️Speed by 10 feet until the start of your next turn. If the creature is hit more than once by weapons that have this property, the Speed reduction doesn’t exceed 10 feet.
