Homebrew Reference Book: Clone Wars Saga Edition Fan Sourcebook - Equipment
This extremely bulky rocket launcher was developed by the Wookiees of Kashyyyk. It is capable of firing rockets that can home in on their targets either individually, or in a single, five-rocket barrage.
Firing this weapon requires a Full-Round Action. When making an attack with this weapon in Single-Fire Mode, make a single attack roll and compare the result to the Reflex Defense of all targets within the rocket’s 2-Square Splash radius. If the primary target is hit, it takes full damage, otherwise it takes half damage. Targets within the Splash radius take half damage on a successful hit, and no damage on a miss. Primary targets with the Evasion Talent take half damage on a hit, no damage on a miss.
If the Homing Rocket Launcher is Aimed in the round prior to firing, the rocket will acquire a target-lock and track its target independently. If the first attack misses, on the following round the rocket makes a second attack using the same attack bonus, but with a -5 penalty (You do not need to spend an Action to make this attack). If the rocket misses a second time, it detonates harmlessly.
When making an Area Attack with this weapon in Barrage Mode, unlike a standard Area Attack, the weapon targets a 3x3-Square area, albeit at an additional -5 penalty to the attack roll. The rockets cannot utilize the homing feature when fired in barrage mode, and effectively carry no Splash damage.
A Strength score of 14 or greater is required to fire this weapon in combat; otherwise the wielder incurs a -5 penalty on all attack rolls made with this weapon. The Homing Rocket Launcher holds five rockets, facilitating a single Barrage mode shot, or five Single-Fire shots. Reloading this weapon takes three Full-Round Actions. The rockets used in this weapon cost 150 credits each, and weigh 1 kg.
