You know, this is pretty funny, since I was talking about doing that very
same thing last night. Our gun-bunny (read munchkin) carries a lot of ammo.
I figured the following he could do, on average:

5 actions per turn @ 10 rounds per action @ 20 turns per minute = 1000
rounds per minute = 10 minutes of firing before he goes dry.

Now, I'm sure you're thinking to yourselves, "Yeah, but who'd be shooting
that much for that long? It'd take forever to game out!" You're right. It
would. There's something like 200 Combat Turns there. My group, depending on
the Turn, can do them in about 5-10 minutes if they're fast. Be a couple of
really intense games.

And you know what? I just got the 3rd book on the "Don't Let the GM See
This" list. BUG CITY

I'm thinking that the gun-bunny wants action, action he'll get.....

Is this a formal list somewhere, or just a witty improvised title? If its
the former I'd be interested in seeing it.

Just don't let the munchkin get controlled by a Wraith... Again.
