Well ,The "barrage missile" is indeed a single one shot missile in the old rules. This one is is the Multiple Rocket Launcher... But Garage Missile Launcher just sounds better :D



Carapace weapon: MRL
Arm weapons: Barrage Missiles.

I was thinking of the old multiple missile launchers... As seen on the carapce in that last titan, when I was talking about old missile launchers.

Carapace weapon: MRL
Arm weapons: Barrage Missiles.

The "Barrage Missile Launcher" is a single shot weapon:

"The barrage missile launcher is a one-shot support weapon. It fires a salvo of plasma warheads that vaporize the target area in a roiling sea of incandescent plasma. It is very useful for depleting void shields but also has a devastating effect against unshielded targets."
                     Titan Legions Rulebook. 1994.

I always used the plastic warlord barrel-shaped launcher as a barrage missile launcher and the smaller metal oval launchers as multiple rocket launchers. So thats the thinking behind this model.

Pic:
Left hand side and middle are front of the current model, right hand side is rear.
Do people prefer it with or without the little aimy device wossnames around the front?
Also, is the back to flat and boring?

Officially the rounded ones are Multi-Launchers, the arm mounted one shot missiles in the above picture are Barrage Launchers.

If E&C is going to be making a modern reaver type Multi Launcher (or whatever the hell it's called these days...) then people can just use that...If you (JL) really wants to make a missile weapon then i'd say stick with the classic round config but people are correct in saying there are plenty of those out there for whoever wants them...

True that there are many out there, but I like it, so I'm making it! And it's somewhat larger than the originals.  :laugh:

Ah great, that clears up most of my confusion surrounding missile launchers. I think the middle one works the best although in comparison to the other weapons you've made it looks a little light on detail. If it is a one shot weapon how about making it look more like a massive single use cartridge is inserted into the front of the weapon, possibly on some sort of spindle?

So if the barrage launcher has no rules yet in the AMTL list perhapps we could twist E&C's arm into giving us one?  :p

I guess I'll just have to use you're barrage missiles as my multi missiles then sir! Let's just hope we never have to face each other in titan on titan combat  :laugh:

I too say the middle one looks best.

That is actually the wrong way round, but I won't set the model police on you  :(

I'm taking for granted the new Reaver style one will be available at some point becasuse E&C will make it for the Medium Walking Robot. As much as I quite like the look of the rounded one I'll probably use that and possibly the old style one shot barrage missile or something else for those. The Quack cannon looks awesome too  :agree:

There are already rules for both the one shot barrage missile and the (Apocalypse) rocket launcher in the ATML list.
