GUNFORGER

GUNFORGER is a supplement for GRIM: A Retro FPS-Styled TTRPG by EfanGamez that seeks to add the gameplay loop of a looter shooter game on top of GRIM's old-school shooter inspired engine. The system is heavily inspired by the Borderlands series of video games but adapted to work on a single roll of a handful of dice via a method inspired by the designs of Zzarchov Kowolski, designer of Neoclassical Geek Revival.

GUNFORGER works by simply rolling a handful of dice: a d4, d6, d8, d12, and a d20 and referencing each result on an appropriate table. The resultant weapon will very likely be nonsensical, unbalanced, but also potentially really funny. To offset this method's potential for completely eradicating any semblance of game balance at the table a simple weapon durability system inspired by the Usage Dice mechanic from The Black Hack is also introduced, with two variants provided in case you desire more granularity or are happy with a more abstract system.
