Here is my take on a Heavy Weapons Guys. This is the classical guys from the old computergames like Quake Team Fortress/random movies, were they carry weapons to big for hand use(Rambo, Predator and so on)
So I once read a guide on PrC, and it said that you should make PrCs for use in your own game... its great to share them, but make them so they add something to your campaign. PrC is also about specialisation and making the "odd choice worth it" a.k.a adding flavour. This one does, and is tailored to the wookie that gets -2 dex, +4 str, and still chose to be the the wookie crazy about big guns - the bigger the better. E-web being the biggest, thus being the object of his dreams.(its like wielding a minigun/gatling gun)
I posted this PrC on the WotC once, and I all I got as feedback was:
it seems very combat oriented (+a rant about that was common in D&D players that play star wars. I never really played D&D)
Why it didn't have more skill stuff, like crafting and repairing the HWs
then there was a complaint about Str 16 as pre req. what do you guys think of that? an E-web weighs 38 kg. it requires at least Str 16 to consider 38 kg as a Light Load.
how is it balanced? Whould you use it...?
oh, and here it is: http://www.hum.aau.dk/~rohde03/Andet/HWG.htm
