Combat Extended Launchers
A set of five rocket launchers (SMAW, MATADOR, RPG-28, RPG-32 and M141) for Combat Extended! This pack is focused on launchers which aren't as easy to find on the Workshop as, say, the Javelin or historical RPGs and recoilless rifles. I did my best to make each launcher feels unique and good at something so as to avoid bloat, but feel free to drop any suggestions/feedback regarding balance or future content :D
Launchers of the same category (disposable or reusable) were balanced to be the best at some niche:
[b]Disposable[/b]
- MATADOR: a longer range alternative to the M72 LAW. Very accurate, but bulkier and more expensive to craft.
- RPG-28: very quick to aim and deals tremendous damage against thick armour, but it has a shorter range than its peers and is heavier than bricks. Ideal for snapshots against heavy mechs, as long as you're careful with the shrapnel!
- M141: a dedicated anti-building launcher. Upon impact, its warhead creates a fragmentation cone that can damage or destroy a second layer of infrastructure.
[b]Reloadable[/b]
- SMAW: ideal for long-range, precise shots (snipe those Centipedes!), but slow to reload.
- RPG-32: a jack-of-all trades that's cheaper and more practical to carry around than the SMAW (lighter and less bulky), but doesn't shoot as far.
Sadly, this mod was designed for CE and is not compatible with vanilla - for the time being, at least...
