| Dwarven engineer skill "expert weaponsmith", does it work with all ranged weapons, or just the crossbow and handgun+ pistols, as listed in the skill description? | |

| It only works on those weapons listed in the description of it.
“Expert Weaponsmith: A Dwarf Engineer is a master of mechanical devices. By using stronger construction materials and time-tested secrets of Dwarf engineering, a Dwarf Engineer can increase the distance the warband’s missile weapons can shoot. Missile weapons bought from the warband’s basic equipment lists have their range increased by 3” for Pistols and 6” for Crossbows and Handguns. Range increases only apply in battles in which the Engineer takes part (though they do apply even if he is yet to enter the battlefield or has already been taken out of action in this battle). He has no effect on the equipment of Hired Swords.” | |

| To further clarrify and I'm a bit rusty on the rules, it only affects pistols, handguns, and crossbows. It doesn't affect duelling pistols, crossbow pistols, warplock pistols, double barrelled pistols or any other type of pistol, crossbow or handgun. The reasoning here is from a fluff perspective whereby the Dwarf Engineer can only modify weapons he has been trained to work with and not weapons which froma rules perspective all fall under the classification of pistols et al.
Hope that helps,
Ram. | |

| Acording to Vanilla Rulebook?: yes. But it's unbalanced and should be house-ruled otherwise. | |
