Improvised Vigilante Weapons

Unread post by LostOne »

Just curious what weapons people have used in their games for improvised vigilante weapons?

Also what damages did you assign to them?

Was kinda thinking golf clubs but thought someone might have a more interesting idea.

I'm thinking maybe 1d6 for a golf club.

how much for a microwave cooking an aerosol can when it blows up?

Maybe 1d6 for the club, 2d6 if you take a full scale swing?

The microwave bomb would be a big distraction, but not huge damage. Equal to a lousy grenade? 3d6 with a short range?

Awhile back there was a board list of alternate weapons for HU. As I recall it started as non-lethal weapons, but covers some of this sort of thing.
