"The loud thunder of firing blackpowder guns, the choking smoke, billowing over the battlefield and the satisfaction of seeing your opponents go down after being pierced by balls of lead...what an invention."
Rakor Ironhide, leader of the Bloodied Shields
This PDF contains rules for flintlock firearms to use in your D&D 5th Edition round. I tried to make them as balanced as possible with all other ranged weapons. No need for new classes or feats - the weapons simply fall under the simple or martial weapon groups.
This is of course no 100% realistic depiction of flintlock firearms and it skips some crucial steps in the evolution of firearms for the sake of usability for adventurers.
Please leave a comment if you like or have some constructive criticism.
Also a huge shoutout to Matthew Mercer for his excellent Gunslinger class, which has inspired me to do this.
