| Ok, Bored times in D&D brought up what sounds like an interesting weapon.
What looks like a Hinged Shot gun. Load a scroll... Aim. Fire!
an Interesting Weapon.
Darn it... I loaded the Summon balor again in Shotgun format...

| It'd be funny for a Munchkin game, or something for worlds where gnomes make crazy tech that do nonsensical hings (like Dragonlance).  | |

| | Looking at it seriously, what advantage or difference would there be from just reading a scroll? | |
You know, I keep thinking that after the new design team gets done with D&D 4e, D&D won't stand for Dungeons and Dragons anymore, because well, that's just not fun. It's old and stuffy. - Originally Posted by BabWryter on Kenzerco.com | |

| | Seriously, the only differnece would be the same as what makes arcane archers a good class: delivering spells at a farther range that are touch or close. Otherwise, it's as you say. | |

| That reminds me of an idea a friend and I had for a Golem.
Its arms would have attachments that resemble gatling guns, only instead of gun barrels, it has wands of magic missle. | |

| Or the punp-action Meteor Shower gun, eight shots, free action to chamber another scroll, full round action to re-load...
Actually this could be a pretty nifty idea if you put a limit on the spell level and required a ranged touch attack with a short range incriment.
Of course what you should really be afraid of is the Polar Ray sniper rifle, with 18 -20x4 crits, and a range incriment of 300 ft | |

| | umm don't you have to read the scroll??? What you need is something that could have a few wands of wonder that activate all at once, now that could end up being funny | |

| Well, that's no fun if you need to read it. I think having a fighter lock and load a scroll he has no idea of the consequences would be a lot more amusing, don't you?
PS Thatks, dj, for this thread. It's provided me with stress relief when I needed it. | |

Don't forget Point Blank Shot and Precise Shot, otherwise you'll take a -4 penalty for firing your scroll into melee
A scroll rifle already exists...it's called a wand. Even has the advantage of firing 50 shots before needing to be reloaded

| Here is the discription.
Rod of Many Wands
This device, perhaps one of the stranger rods ever created,
allows you to utilize more than one wand at a single time.
Description: A rod of many wands is made of steel and
constructed in two distinct parts. The handle end, wrapped
in leather, is roughly as thick as the handle of a mace, while
the top end is roughly twice that in diameter. Each makes up
about half the length of the rod. The upper end contains three
depressions running down its length, each one designed to
hold a wand in place.
Activation: In order to make use of a rod of many wands,
you must first load it with as many as three wands you wish
to use. Each wand requires a full-round action to load (or a
move action to remove). After one or more wands are loaded
into the rod, they can all be activated by a single command
word unique to the rod. This utterance is a complex phrase
in Draconic, and speaking it requires a full-round action,
rather than the standard action normally required for command
word activation.
Effect: With this rod, you can trigger multiple wands at
once. Although you are not required to fill all three depressions,
you cannot selectively activate the wands that you have
loaded; activating the rod triggers every wand connected
to it. This process drains a number of charges from each
wand equal to the number of wands loaded into the rod. For
instance, if you have fully loaded the rod, each use drains
three charges from each wand. | |

| | Dual-Wand Wielder is generally a better bargain than the Rod of Many Wands (uses less charges, but you only get to fire off two wands a round instead of three). | |

| | I think so too. But, it is a great feat for getting your butt out of trouble when you need it. For instance, three fireballs or three holy smites can change an encounter very quickly. A friend of mine feels feats are sometimes better used like that: Not necessarily for every encounter, but when you really need it you're thankful you have it. | |
