Caveats
  • No superweapon, silo, charge or owning house is involved, and nothing is announced. The missile simply appears at the edge cell nearest the target, exactly as the nuke strike action does.
  • The projectile, warhead, damage and range all come from the weapon named ChemLauncher. The lookup is by that fixed name and the result is used without being checked, so a rules tree that registers no such weapon reads one position before the start of the weapon list.
  • The flight speed is fixed in the engine at 20; the weapon's own Speed is not consulted.
  • The target is raised to deck height only while a bridge still stands over the waypoint's cell.
  • No firer is recorded, so the blast earns no points, stirs no anger, grants no veterancy and springs no destroyed-by-house event on what it kills.
