Three Barrel Rotary Dash-Gatter (.36)
A clockwork, belt-fed machine gun. The contraption is about
three and a half feet long and meant to be strapped to the torso,
under the arm by a special harness for stability. The belt feeder
and barrel rotation mechanisms are powered by a small clockwork
energy bank. Winding for 8 minutes at ST 10 will run the gun through
600 shots (50 seconds of continuous fire). Note that without the
harness attached, the gun weighs (effectively) 20 lbs. more (due
to its awkward size and shape). If fired without the harness,
the ST req. increases to 14, the Acc decreases to 3, the Rcl.
increases to -4, and the SS increases to 18. The harness costs
$10, weighs 3 lbs., takes 1 minute to put on, and must be purchased
seperately. Stats below assumes the user is wearing the harness.
Released in 1882.

Limited Edition Colt "Pounder" Hand Cannon, .44
A stingy pistol with five seperate chambers. One pull on the
trigger fires every chamber simultaneously. Characters with less
than the required ST take 1 hex of knockback when firing. The
muzzel is very short and thick, the gun itself is a dull black
color. See GURPS Old West for more info on the "4d+2+"
damage value. For purposes of combat, treat any firing of multiple
bullets as a single shot (RoF is effectively 1/L rather than 5/L
b/c the shots are simultaneous). If fewer than five chambers are
loaded, damage is reduced to the number of bullets multiplied
by 1d (frex, 3 loaded chambers would yield a damage of 3d). Released
1880.

Nobel's Portative Trinitrotoluene Projector
Essentially a hollow steel tube 1.5' long with a trigger
assembly. A powerful spring mechanism can lob sticks of dynamite
up to 80 yards. The mechanism requires 20 kWs for each shot (a standard
1 lb. CEB would provide enough power for two shots and require 3
minutes to rewind completely). One stick of dynamite does 5d-2 damage
(DL68) and weighs 1/2 lb. Dynamite costs $3 per stick; this device
requires that each stick be equipped with a special blasting cap
(an additional $2.50). So, CPS is $5.50 (£1 10s.). Use the
Grenade Launcher skill. The launcher itself does not hold extra
ammunition; a new stick must be loaded for each use. See CII64 for
more on damage from TNT.

Clockwork Energy Banks (CEBs)
Clockwork
Energy Banks use the advanced ("cinematic") clockwork
energy storage listed on STM69. They come in standard sizes based
on weight. Use the following table. CEBs have holes in their tops
into which a steel crank (or a rod connected to a steam engine/turbine)
may be inserted for winding. A ST10 man can wind 12 kWs into a CEB
per minute.

Cards
TL: |
5+1 |
Cost: |
$20 per deck |
These
cards are made of a strong but light alloy.
Statistics are as per the shuriken on CII32, with the following
exceptions: damage is reduced to a maximum of 1d-2, 1/2D is increased
to ST-2, Max is increased to ST+3. A single deck contains 52 cards
and weighs 1.5 lbs. (~0.5 oz. per card). A card that strikes a hard
surface (most armors) has a 2 in 6 chance of breaking. Can be used
as normal playing cards, though a critical failure at Poker could
indicate a arterial wound and a bad hand.
