Review The Hunter’s Armory

Series in General:

This series covers several kinds of weaponry players and storytellers might use in an WoD gameline. Weapon profiles include a picture, a brief description of the weapons and all the relevant data for use in game (difficulty, damage, range, concealment, weight, lenght, special rules and maneuvers and resources background costs). In general a great line to expand combat options in any chronicle. V5 compatibility. The developers note that the information presented in the series is designed to work in all editions of Vampire. But one might need to check the rules in V5 to assign the correct damage for the weapons in that ruleset.

Vol. 1 This First book in the series covers several options for revolvers,pistols and SMGs found in a modern chronicle. The weapon profiles are well written and can be used as a basis to adapt several firearms and manufacturers. The only missing thing in this volume is a chart that summarizes weapon info.

Vol.2 The Second book in the series covers modern weaponry with focus in SMGs, Rifles and Shotguns. Weapon profiles include a picture, a brief description of the weapons and all the relevant data for use in game (difficulty, damage, range, concealment, weight, lenght, special rules and maneuvers and resources background costs). Some of the weapons might be restricted for players but it’s still a very useful sourcebook.

Vol.3 The Third book in the armory series covers several “common” melee weapons and bows and crossbows. Weapon profiles include a picture, a brief description of the weapons and all the relevant data for use in game (difficulty, damage, range, concealment, weight, lenght, special rules and maneuvers and resources background costs). This book alongside the two previous volumes covers most of the options one might need in a chronicle set in a modern setting.

Vol.4 The Fourth book in this series covers several japanese weapons and the special maneuvers associated with them. Weapon profiles include a picture, a brief description of the weapons and all the relevant data for use in game (difficulty, damage, range, concealment, weight, lenght, special rules and maneuvers and resources background costs). In our opinion the most niche book in the series since it only covers weapons from one country.

Vol.5 This volume covers firearms, artillery and a couple melee weapons one might find in a Victorian Era setting or in the hands of elder vampires in a modern chronicle. Weapon profiles include a picture, a brief description of the weapons and all the relevant data for use in game (difficulty, damage, range, concealment, weight, lenght, special rules and maneuvers and resources background costs).

Vol. 6 The sixth volume in this series covers a variety of firearms for use in a Chronicle set in the Wild West or in the hands of elder vampires in a modern chronicle. Weapon profiles include a picture, a brief description of the weapons and all the relevant data for use in game (difficulty, damage, range, concealment, weight, lenght, special rules and maneuvers and resources background costs).

The Tabletop Gaming Club recommends this series to all fans of the world of darkness.

This 3rd issue is packed with more good stuff that players and ST's will enjoy having, all that is missing is the author's Gold edition touch as he has done to the first one which helps readability greatly.

This book keeps up the quality of the previous two, however, I have a few more gripes with it than the others, particularly in its treatment of the historical weapons presented. I feel that the categories are perhaps too broad, and the differences between weapons that could be classified as “two-handed swords” not particularly well presented. This may be because I have a hobby interest in historical armaments, and know nothing about guns, but I just thought I’d throw it out there. Other than that, it’s a well-made book that presents a lot of interesting rules and equipment choices. I’m practically fond of the 2x4.
