This is just a first draft. I'm not 100% solid on some of the advanced moves. I'll repost this in the Dungeon World forums and Google Plus communities. Feedback is more than welcome!
Also on Google Docs!
UPDATE: I've changed some things in the Google Doc after getting some great feedback. The Doc is up-to-date. The text bellow is not.

Thunder and metal. Lightning and chemicals. You are the next step in
the slayer's art. Let the others keep their swords and bows. Your
weapon cracks the sky and rains molten lead upon your foes. Wherever
you're going, Hell's coming with you.
Can it be mere
coincidence that gunpowder smells like brimstone?
