Customer Reviews

Not your typical equipment book
I appreciate most about this book what it does that isn't typical of an equipment guide. It offers legal context for items. It lists common myths about weapons and the truth behind them. It gives results for the often silly and overly cinematic things that the players may try. It offers guidelines on how high a character's skill should be based on background and training, often giving creative means to justify having a score (Weaponry dots justified by playing baseball, for example). Lastly, it doesn't feel the need to provide lists and lists of weapons, rather it encourages the Storyteller to just use the stats of the most similar item provided. Not at all what I expected and I am very happy with it.

Armory delivers new options while keeping the system simple.
Armory presents a wide variety of new weapons, vehicles, and equipment for any World of Darkness game. New fighting styles and other merits add many new combat options for characters, and the discussion of how real world equipment and weapons training works is very helpful. If you want more detail than the World of Darkness corebook offers, or just don't know a lot about guns and weapons, then this is a great product offering enough detail and discussion to flesh out equipment without overwhelming the reader with endless lists of identical weapons.

We got Nukes, Knives, and Sharp Sticks
This book is good in some situation, but in not all. It gives the stats, costs and discriptions of a good number of guns, swords, knives, grenades, etc. Plus if you need a different type of vehicle than the generic car, you it lists different types and styles of vehicle, including heicopters and airplanes. I would recommend this book if you have someone in your game group that has to have thi kick @$$ smg, pistol, and armored vehicles. If you don't, save your money and stick with the stats of the guns listed in the World of Darkness core rule book.
