Suggestion: Snubnose Pistols as Sport Gear?
« on: May 22, 2020, 12:52:04 am »
Hi. I recently went on a Ski Resort mission, and I noticed something curious: Light Pistols are considered sports gear, but Snubnose Pistols are not. Which is a pity because they seem pretty decent-ish.

Any reason why? Seems like Light Pistols get in because they're easily concealable, so Snubnose guns should fit likewise.

Are you thinking of spy pistols? I'm pretty sure you can't take light pistols

No, Snubnose. The little 1-grid revolvers you can buy at the start.

And you can, because I took a bunch.

No, there's no way you can smuggle in something like this when you can't do it with a smaller one.

Actually if a sporting rifle might be present, cannot see why gor instance a ISSF 25 meter pistol not. It has a capacity of 2/3 rounds. But whatever!

You know, I'm going to consider it, since it obviously wouldn't do any damage. :)

Any suggestions for effects? Just not too wacky.

Hmm, let me think... A damage to morale, perhaps. Why?
Well, if I were a target I would become very furious if someone assful tried to piss on me from this toy! ;D

UPD: The only variant I can imagine is a chemical damage. Some chemical mixture which become toxic in response to oxygen. A real chemical weapon disguised as a water pistol.

Ah yes, the water gun that shot acid, a classic weapon from Fallout Tactics IIRC. That would be hilarious to have, if highly immoral difficult to justify to the council. Perhaps it requires knowing alien chems and Promotion 2 at least.

Fallout Tactics had a water squirter pistol, and with the right ammo, it became an acid pistol. Pretty good if I remember right.

If you want guns to bring to Ski resort/Beach missions, I recommend waiting a little more.

Spoiler:
There's one certain BlackOps Spygun that you can bring anywhere.

That, or bring Dart Pistols. Or an angry dog to hide in corners and bite your enemies to death.

Aren't hybrids running around with acid weapons that look like damn toys?
