Different mprt ammo - unfunnyperson - 05-21-2021
The mprt rockets that spawn on the battlecruiser could have a small chance to spawn as a different version with effects.
My ideas
Sarin Rocket - Deploys a cloud of sarin when it hits an object instead of exploding.
Projectile Rocket - Instead of exploding does incredibly high damage and stuns on a direct hit. Also destroys any machinery/walls it connects with.
Cryo rocket - Creates a massive slip hazard and freezes anyone nearby the rocket when it hits something.
Emp rocket - Releases a large emp upon detonation.

Every last one of these is massively worse than a regular old rocket.
The projectile rocket as described is just a regular rocket only worse, even.

I think all of those are just things grenades can do and the grenades class gets access to them so that sounds kind of pointless to add.

Pouring revsersium on a MRPT rocket should make it fly backwards like that one scene in the Tin Tin movie where they blow up the dam. Bubsium makes it into a flare
Which calls in a plasma howitzer shot

Those are pretty much all things grenades do, however I like the idea of more varied ammo and I have a few ideas of my own for varied ammo:
- Demolition/Breaching ammo, 3 tile wide removal of floor, walls, doors, ect. along its path, perhaps only goes for 5 tiles or so, with a small exposion at the end.
- Piercing ammo, can go though one wall (similar to the nukie sniper) that, with a short delay after passing though the wall, blows up with a bit less powerful explosion than normal ammo.

I mean, RPG does stand for "Rocket Propelled Grenade"
I typically use them for breeching, so rounds that are better suited for that sound great.
Maybe one that leaves a wake of vision obscuring smoke along it's flight path, to give the Nuke Ops a smoke screen could work?

I mean if we are going into grenade usage isnt that specifically what the Grenadier syndie class is for?
