He didn't fire an actual shot at him. He fired a blank round.

And one musket shot may not stop him, but multiple shots probably would.

I just caught up on reading the OOC, you weren't serious about having those blunderbusses were you?

Multiple Musket shots is going to stop a 6 meter giant with thick skin?

At some point, it's going to strike either a vital organ or perhaps an artery (and he will bleed to death).

I was. Just a matchlock version instead of a flintlock one (since flintlock hasn't been invented yet).

Probably not, but they could hit a weak point such as eyes or fingers.

Vital organs are under almost a foot of muscle and bone. That's unlikely with anything but a large caliber gun or cannon. Same for arteries.

I mean like a volley will take one down. Well maybe not one. Accuracy and all that. But like thirty or forty rounds to the chest or head will do one in.

Actually unlikely. A twenty-foot giant is essentially bulletproof. Fire and pikes are more effective if you're actually trying to be lethal.

My point is 16th-17th century pistols could pierce breastplates but not the clothing worn behind it, 15th century would do less. And Pretentia supports my point a bit.

A volley to the eyes is a mission-kill though. Bullets could probably break fingers as well.

They will aim for his head, then. Or, if necessary, we could stab him with a pike.

Not against early rounds. A heavy, slow round is gonna be ugly on open muscle and skin. A small, fast round will do jack though. It's not like these are hard targets.

They're also pseudo-amphibians, so attacking with fire, damming rivers, and covering bodies of water in poison could work.
