With the recent conflict to depose the old Iraqi regime of the last 24 years, we've put together this special edition that details the most common small arms utilized by the Iraqi, British, and U.S. forces involved in the conflict. This includes the main assault rifles used by each force, and heavy weapons like machine guns, mortars, MANPADS like the Stinger, and man-portable anti-tank weapons like the Javelin or RPG-7. Over 60 additional weapons to supplement the first volume of Big Bang! There's even a primer for chemical and biological agents in your games.

This product is designed as an expansion to Big Bang: The Mostly Illustrated RPG Guide to Firearms Volume 1. Therefore, that product is required in order to make full use of this one.

This older edition is left available for game masters seeking the material for their D20 games involving the modern military genre and espionage genre d20 products by other publishers. Those looking for something more suitable for their general gaming use should buy the revised version, which also provides information on twice as many weapons.
