This
is the man-pack
model;
the fuel is carried on a backpack
canister.
A hit on this canister, even if it is
only
partially full, will cause an explosion
doing
8-64 points of damage (4-32 if
save
is made) to all within 1” and will
destroy
the weapon. To determine the
reloading
time, roll d6 or modify, taking
into
account dexterity, familiarity with
weapon,
damage to weapon, visibility,
etc.
Remember that this weapon will do
little
or no damage to fire-resistant monsters
in
the AD&D setting.
