+ | We'd actually made this ruling a while back due to people abusing this type of ammo for an 'I win' button against Vampires and Werewolves, but it's been brought to our attention that we should probably post it here to make it official, and for convenience' | ||

+ | |||
+ | So how do you get your hands on these? Simple: You make them yourself. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Incendiary Ammo/Flare Rounds: | ||
+ | In order to acquire flare rounds, you must have a minimum of Crafts 3, with two successes equalling one flare round. Botching this roll will cause the round to be faulty, and to explode in your own gun when fired, likely dealing severe Lethal damage to your character, not to mention destroying your weapon. | ||
+ | Attempting to buy the rounds on the black market will require a minimum of Resources 4, an in-character justification for how your character has black market contacts, and even then, it will be impossible to buy these rounds in bulk, due to how tightly these types of weapons are regulated. | ||
+ | Mages may produce these types of flare rounds with Matter 3/Forces 3, and by infusing 1 quintessence into each bullet produced. to lock the effect. A less costly method would be to create a batch of Charms with the same effect (Charms 3, 9 Quint for twenty bullets). But unless you really need these fire dealing bullets, you're better off just using Prime 2 to make your weapon deal aggravated damage for the duration of the scene. | ||

+ | Silver Rounds: | ||
+ | These cannot be purchased in bulk. The only companies that produces them in an amount where this would even be possible, Pentex subsidiaries, | ||
+ | You may attempt to get these rounds from Pentex itself, but make sure you have IC justification for it, such as having a Pentex operative as a background dot... or having enough Resources to ensure some " | ||
+ | Mages may produces these with Matter 2. Much simpler than incendiary rounds. | ||
+ | Just like with flare rounds, you need a minimum of Crafts 3 to make them, or to make silver-plated weapons. But unlike flare rounds, you also need Resources 3 in order to buy the materials to make ten bullets (possibly less depending upon the caliber of the round you're making). Pure silver is not cheap, and it's a relatively flimsy metal that makes for a poor weapon unless you know exactly what you're doing. For details, see the ST of your splat. | ||
+ | It is not possible to buy these weapons on the black market. Again, the consensus opinion among arms dealers is that they' | ||
