Here is a newly designed anti-armor/anti-personnel missile launcher.

Knockdown Missile Launcher
Model: TX2-36 "Knockdown" Double Barreled Missile Launcher
Type: Anti-speeder weapon
Scale: Character
Skill: Missile Weapons
Ammo:  2 missiles per tube
Cost: 550
Availability: X
Fire Rate: 1 missile per tube
Range: 20-200/350/450
Damage: 11D/9D/5D
Performance Notes:
        Two types of missiles can be launched by the Knockdown.  One, a
heat seeker is designed for airspeeders and speeder bikes.  The second is a
"flare" missile, that turns the surrounding area into a blazing inferno,
provided there are flammable materials nearby.  The actual damage of the
flare missile drops to 2D, as does the range (350m is max) so the materials
can be ignited.  The missile is not supposed to drop to the ground, but
break up in midair dumping the firebombs onto the ground.  A loader inserts
the missiles from the middle of the tube.
Capsule:
        The Knockdown Missile Launcher is a shoulder mounted weapon
designed for first strike missions.  The missiles keep their powerful
destructive power until approximately 395 meters, when the current damage
is chopped in half.  The longest range noted in the weapon logs is 467
meters, which destroyed the last target.

*Note: I am taking a brief unsub from the list to concentrate on other
things.  I'll put it back on in a few days with some new/improved weapons
and equipment for the RPG players.  And possibly some new characters.
E-mail me with any comments upon the Knockdown missile.
