Features
Shot: This weapon can fire shot or bullets if the weapon uses shot then armour is treated normally but upto three near targets can be attacked by a single blast of shot. Each individual takes weapon damage for a success and the player may then distribute every other success as they wish across those hit.
Bullet: This weapon fires bullets this ignores chain armour and halves damage(round up) for all other armour. Cover may also only provide half at the GMs discretion.
Rifling: Increases the weapons range by one. Not possible with weapons with the Shot feature. Adds a additional multiplier to weapon cost (or potential for limited availability by kin. i.e. only Dwarves and they will not tolerate ownership by non Dwarves)
Melee:
In melee all black powder weapons may be used as clubs and use the same Bonus/Damage but if they are loaded have a chance to accidentally misfire if used to attack or parry.
Actions:
Load : All black powder weapons need to loaded and primed as a slow action.

Types:
Matchlock
A matchlock is a historical type of firearm wherein the gunpowder is ignited by a burning piece of rope that is touched to the gunpowder by a mechanism that the musketeer activates by pulling a lever or trigger with his finger.
- Price multiplier *1
- The match of the matchlock weapon must be lit for the weapon to function. It requires an ammo resource roll every quarter to keep the match lit. To light a match requires a stationary person 2 slow actions.
- The match emits light and smoke which could have an impact on a persons ability to be stealthy. The mechanics of which are left to the GM.
Wheelock
A wheellock, wheel-lock or wheel lock is a friction-wheel mechanism which creates a spark that causes a firearm to fire. It was the next major development in firearms technology after the matchlock and the first self-igniting firearm. Its name is from its rotating steel wheel to provide ignition.
- Price multiplier * 1.5
- Wheelock weapons require that the weapon is wound before firing this is an additional fast action. They may be kept out of combat wound but there is a potential for the weapon to fire should the owner be involved in vigorous action. The consequences of this are left to the GM
Flintlock
The flintlock mechanism is a type of lock used on muskets, rifles, and pistols from the early 17th to the mid-19th century. It is commonly referred to as a "flintlock" (without the word mechanism), though that term is also commonly used for the weapons themselves as a whole, and not just the lock mechanism.
- Price multiplier * 2
- Maybe cocked as part of the Load action reducing the chance of accidental discharge.
Pistol
Pistols were used as self-defense weapons and as a military arm. Their effective range was short, and they were frequently used as an adjunct to a sword or cutlass. Pistols were usually smoothbore although some rifled pistols were produced.
Dragon
A dragon is a shortened version of blunderbuss, a firearm with a short, large caliber barrel which is flared at the muzzle and frequently throughout the entire bore.[1][2] Dragons were typically issued to Dragoon cavalry, who needed a lightweight, easily handled firearm while mounted
Donderbuss
The Donderbuss/blunderbuss is a firearm with a short, large caliber barrel which is flared at the muzzle and frequently throughout the entire bore, and used with shot and other projectiles of relevant quantity or caliber. The blunderbuss is commonly considered to be an early predecessor of the modern shotgun, with similar military and defensive use. It was effective only at short range, lacking accuracy at long distances
Carbine
The carbine was originally developed for cavalry. The start of early modern warfare about the 16th century had infantry armed with firearms, prompting cavalry to do the same, even though reloading muzzle loading firearms while moving mounted was highly impractical
Musket
A musket is a muzzle-loaded long gun that appeared as a smoothbore weapon in the early 16th century, at first as a heavier variant of the arquebus, capable of penetrating heavy armour.
