Blackhammer

Blackhammer.

Notorious for its sheer destructive power, the Blackhammer comprises of a carefully crafted barrel fitted to an equally well-crafted stock and firing mechanism, all constructed to safely fire a single massive shell, more than twice the size of a standard shotgun cartridge with many
times the power. Each shell is custom-made and filled with dozens of heavy pellets the size of stubber rounds, backed by a huge charge; the quality of the barrel breach and stock are vital to keep the weapon from tearing itself apart with every firing. The Blackhammer itself is a rarity
whose fame often precedes it. The weapon’s short range and single-shot capacity are often overlooked in favour of its immense stopping power, although, like many such weapons, it can prove dramatically less effective against
targets with substantial “hard” armour.

Such is the weapon’s ferocious recoil it imposes an additional –10 to hit unless the firer has a Strength Bonus of 4 or more or the weapon is braced. The Blackhammer’s shells count as Exotic ammunition.
