Weaponry
Reloading: All firearms of this period were muzzle-loaders which took a considerable amount of time to reload. It takes six turns to reload a sidearm, nine turns to reload a smoothbore longarm and twelve turns to reload a rifled longarm.
Ammunition:
Weapon traits: The weapons listed below come with a number of traits that are additional to those in the core nWoD system.
Armour Piercing: Weapons with the AP trait are designed to punch through or ignore armour with greater efficiency than normal. Any hit with an AP weapon reduces the damage reduction from the target's armour by an amount equal to the AP trait. AP from different sources stack together
Hafted: Weapons with a long haft make it easier to parry incoming melee attacks, granting +1 Defense against Brawl or Weaponry attacks when the weapon is wielded in two hands.
Smoothbore: Weapons with the Smoothbore trait do not fire true, all range penalties are increased; to -4 at medium range and -6 at long range.
Sidearms

Adding "scratch rifling" to a pistol makes it more accurate, though is considered ungentlemanly if brought to a duel. Scratch rifling removes the Smoothbore trait, and increases the range by 50%. However, it also increases loading time by two turns.
Longarms

All Longarms require two hands to use accurately. Firing a longarm one-handed incurs a -1 dice penalty.
