| Guns.
Keeping to the late medieval time range of the game, the possibility of another area of ranged weapons such as guns could be pulled off. We're not talking semi-automatic colt pistols here, or any of that machine gun garbage. We're talking say, the high damage, slow reloading Blunderbuss, or the early Flintlock pistol, or wheel-lock pistols (before the flintlock), even 'hand-cannons' if we want to go really far back.
One thing is for sure though, if they ever made an appearance in the game, guns should be balanced just as equally as the rest of the weapons range. Very slow attack speed and high piercing damage would probably make ends meet for a 'gun' class weapon. I'd also think they should be kept whithin a sensible time range, there is always the risk that their modern assocation would ruin the timescale and atmosphere of the game, and even destroy the gameplay if they were to be too cheif.
