Reference Book: Star Wars Saga Edition Force Unleashed Campaign Guide
A variant of the E-Web Repeating Blaster, the E-Web Missile Launcher consists of a heavy, tripod-mounted firing mechanism from which missiles are launched. When mounted on a tripod, it is treated as one size smaller for purposes of being wielded (allowing a Medium character to operate it with two hands).
An E-Web Missile Launcher operates only in Single-Fire mode, though it does not require a Power Generator. An E-Web Missile Launcher is an Area Attack Weapon that damages all targets in a 2-square by 2-square area.
When you make an Area Attack with an E-Web Missile Launcher, you make a single attack roll and compare the result to the Reflex Defense of every target in the Weapon's Burst radius. Creatures you hit take full damage, and creatures you miss take half damage. A target with the Evasion talent takes half damage from a successful attack, and no damage if the attack misses.
Usually, a second crewmember is required to reload an E-Web Missile Launcher between shots, jamming a live missile into the launch tube as a Move Action. An E-Web Missile Launcher can fire only a single shot each round, after which the Weapon must be reloaded.
The wielder of an E-Web Missile Launcher can spend two Swift Actions in the same round immediately before making an attack to treat the Range to the target as though it were one step shorter (Short becomes Point-Blank, Medium becomes Short, and so forth); this benefit stacks with the effect of the Far Shot Feat.
The missiles fired by an E-Web Missile Launcher cost 75 credits each.
