On the subject of guns in the Grindstone: what about rubber bullets?
I don't think we should be using NPCs doing cool things during cutscenes as the benchmark, otherwise I'm going to canonically start swinging Godbert's hammer around and playing Devil May Cry at the Grindstone.
Rubber bullets might be considered. Beanbags, too, like riot cops use. I'll burn that bridge when it comes to it, but I'm uneasy about it simply because of how indefensible they are when it comes to posting. It still boils down to the attacker's accuracy, not the defender's anything-except-armor-maybe.
