Reloading
High-Tech p.86, "Reloading Your Gun,"Multi-Part Ammo"
- A self-measuring powder flask (see Powder and Shot, p. 163) subtracts five seconds from the final loose-ammunition loading time.
- A self-priming pan (see weapon description) subtracts 10 seconds, but this benefit isn’t cumulative with that of a self-measuring flask.
- Paper cartridges halve the basic time required (round up), and supersede both of the above measures.
- Loading a muzzleloading shoulder arm – not a pistol – while in any posture other than standing multiplies the basic time required by 1.5 (round up). Loading while mounted requires a roll against the lower of Guns-3 and Riding-3; loading on a moving vehicle requires a Guns-2 roll.
- House Rule: Wheellocks: Loading times for wheellocks will be increased to match matchlocks instead of flintlocks.
- House Rule: Hurried Loading: (From High-Tech (3e) p.34) At any time after half the normal loading time, the loader can try hurried loading. A roll against Black Powder Weapons, minus the number of seconds remaining until full loading time, is required. A failure adds the number of seconds by which the roll was failed to normal loading time. A critical failure requires that loading be started over. A success loads the gun immediately. A critical success loads the gun and gives +1 to Accuracy for the shot with that load.
