Rocket Launcher

A standard Heavy weapon, popular with suit pilots who need more range than a heavy machine gun can provide. Rocket launchers also have difficulty in locking on targets of human size or smaller, applying a -4 to any hit rolls against them. Conventional rocket warheads are shaped for maximum armor penetration rather than explosive radius, and mech pilots can use them even against very close targets without blast danger. Upgraded TL4 equivalents cost twice as much.
