Hi, unstealthyogre, welcome to FG.

Indeed, the price for dynamite isn't given; neither are the prices for anything modern. I have no clue what that might cost in relation to other gear. Probably more depends on what kind of modern game you are running and what the scenario is. The players might, for example, be able to access it without paying for it. On the basis that the nearest thing from the renaissance would be a bomb which costs 150gp and a musket from the same era is 500gp; I'd set the price at about a quarter of what you determine a modern firearm is worth in your game.

It's in the DMG but there are no prices given. Presumably because by the time you are in a modern era we have moved on from gold pieces :)

Dynamite is 87.43 Credits. Will that be cash or plastic? :D
