| #2johannixxJul 04, 2008 23:29:33 | I thought that was a .44 Automag? Either way, I'd probably give it 2d8 same as a .44 Mag. Unless I miss my guess, the Wildey wasn't quite powerful enough to rate 2d10. |
| #3akodoJul 08, 2008 23:48:35 | a few points of comparison 7.62x39 (AK-47 ammo) = 1550 ft/lbs of energy 223 aka 5.56 NATO (M-16 ammo) = 1200 ft/lbs of energy 9x19mm (regular 9mm) = 400 ft/lbs of energy 357 magnum = 600 ft/lbs of enerfy 44 magnum = 900 ft/lbs of energy 475 widly is 1900 ft/lbs of energy so I'd say match it to the guns firing 7.62x39 |
| #4rustam1Jul 09, 2008 19:01:52 | a few points of comparison Soooo, which would you say? 2d8 or 2d10 Desert Eagle (.50AE autoloader) 2d8 AKM/AK-47 (7.62mmR assault rifle) 2d8 HK G3 (7.62mm assault rifle) 2d10 M16A2 (5.56mm assault rifle) 2d8 S&W M29 (.44 magnum revolver) 2d8 Winchester 94 (.444 hunting rifle) 2d10 |
| #5tema69Jul 10, 2008 12:47:19 | Well, if it matches an AK 7.62x39mm dealing 2d8 damage, I guess it would be appropriate to give it 2d8 damage too. You see the logic? |
| #6akodoJul 12, 2008 17:04:40 | Soooo, which would you say? 2d8 or 2d10 That's the problem, there should be a difference between 44 magnum and 50AE/7.62x39, but there isn't So while it should outperform 44 magnum, it should match 50AE and 7.62x39, unfortunately all 3 are 2d8, so that is what it is. Also note, the G3 fires 7.62x51 which is significantly more powerful than 7.62x39 I guess they try and denote the difference with 7.62mmR with R standing for Russian, but really, there is also a very famous russian round the 7.62x54 Rimmed, and the way the eastern nations differentiate them is with 7.62k (for kalashankov) and 7.62R for rimmed (or the syrillic equivalents) |
