Pistols

Pistols have a maximum capacity of 10
A maximum range of 50ft flat (unless otherwise specified in the class’s loadout)
Pistols cannot be fully automatic (this disqualifies the Speedswarm as a legitimate pistol)
Anything that utilises N-strike Clips, homemade clips, RSCB’s, Hoppers, Choppers, or inline clips are not classed as pistols (If you have a dart feeding system that is not covered here please enquire within).
The only legal pistol that can fire a more than one dart per trigger pull is the Barrel Break

Integrations

Any integrations must adhere to the limitations of the class’s load out i.e. you cannot integrate a LSFG onto a Longshot if you are a Medic, as you have no secondary slot to accommodate the LSFG
Integrations are allowed to be modular if you so choose
You cannot integrate a melee weapon onto your blaster (unless in the special case of approved Gunblade replica)
All integrations must fire darts only

Melee weapons (small)

Every class is entitled to carry a small melee weapon (approx 50cm long)
A hit from a small melee weapon removes one life
Can be thrown and as if it were being used to attack normally
Can deflect darts and melee attacks while being held in the hand, but not grenades or rockets
It is possible to throw the small melee weapon to knock grenades or rockets off-course. If the small melee weapon makes contact with the grenade/rocket, and that grenade/rocket misses you, it does not count as a hit

Melee weapons (large)

Only useable by the Warden
Can be used to deflect darts and other melee attacks
Cannot be thrown at all. Throwing the large melee weapon will result in the Warden losing a life. The only exception would be if they are capturing the flag, in which case if the large melee weapon must be dropped, not tossed
It is possible to reflect darts onto enemies, which would count as a hit

The Shield

Only useable by the Warden
Can deflect darts and melee attacks, but is destroyed by grenades
When a shield is destroyed, the Warden must drop it. If the Warden is hit with a dart or a grenade on a destroyed shield, it counts as a hit to the Warden as if there was no shield at all.
When a Shield is hit by a rocket, the Warden loses a life and must either await resurrection or return to respawn
Can be dropped at any time by the Warden, but this will result in the Shield being destroyed
It is possible to reflect darts onto enemies, which would count as a hit
The Shield cannot be used as a melee weapon

Grenades

There are two types of Grenade available in FF:S – The Nerf Pocket Howler and the BuzzBee BBUMB Rocket.
The BBUMB Rocket is the Assault’s grenade. It is able to destroy the Warden’s Shield or as anti-personnel. If the BBUMB Rocket hits a player, it will take away one Life.
The Nerf Pocket Howler is the Demolitionist’s grenade. It is also able to destroy the Warden’s shield, but packs a much greater punch in terms of anti-personnel. If the Pocket Howler hits a player, it will take away three lives
Grenades cannot be picked up after being thrown except by a player who is returning to respawn [This rule will not be implemented until there are ample grenades at wars]

The Ghost’s “Sniper Rifle”

Ghosts must use either a suitable airgun or a Nerf Longshot as their Ghost primary
Range is capped at 160ft flat
There is a minimum engagement distance of 60ft on the Ghost’s primary weapon. This engagement distance stands regardless.
The Ghost’s primary weapon can only fire one dart at a time
Any integrations to the Ghost’s primary weapon must not use the same air tank as the primary, nor can it have a linked trigger.
Ghosts cannot use a 35 drum
If the Nerf Longshot is being used as a primary for the Ghost, it can only utilise N-Strike six clips and cannot have a shotgun grip attached

Alright, may we classify the hunter as a pistol?

by **Echoes** Sun 04 Mar 2012, 8:17 am

I don't see why not. It's small enough. If a furyfire or a hyperfire is a pistol, don't see why the Hunter isn't either.
