The Missile Launcher is tubular device that fires self-propelled, unguided rockets at one’s foes. The rockets deal impressive damage in a wide radius (often catching one’s teammates, if the shooter is not careful). Like the other heavy weapons, it is effective against vehicles, but must be deployed before firing. It holds 10 Missiles in one clip. Because of the [relatively] slow speed of flying missiles, it is often a better idea to aim at the ground near an enemy, or a nearby wall; likewise, it is often advisable to lead your target, aiming where you think they will be in a moment… if you can score a direct hit (instead of merely a blast) on an enemy, though, the damage is truly prodigious. Finally, for blast weapons like the Missile Launcher (and Plasma Weapons), firing downward from a high vantage point is often helpful.
