Exodus and his minions made the golems. Have you seen any of them firing guns? If someone were to create firearms, wouldn't they have had them? That whole steaming pile of technocracy from Todd "I'm Too Cool For Myself" McFarlane was lame anyway.

Aside from the veteran reward, which would obviously be non-canonical (see: riding polar bears) when's the last time you saw a working cannon? Besides that, any firearms that fit into the setting would be slower and less accurate than archery weapons.

It's always been my opinion that guns need to be kept out of high fantasy. If you want to kill a dragon with a rifle, go play some medieval steampunk.
