Well the rocket damage hasn't been touched really. Reason being in real life if you were to stand close to one of these going off it would probably do next to nothing to you. The blast is basically a concussive blast meaning theres no shrapnel flying out of it.[/quote:cb795]
You should have added to it just a little... I hate walking around a corner and having a tube hit me square in the face from 1 foot and the bastard lives through it. We should both die. The rocket guy should die from a blast five feet in front of him no matter what. That would put a dent in rocketeers and is true.
A modern day AT4 Straight from my army handbook.
Rocket:
Caliber 84mm
Muzzle Velocity 290 mps (950fps)
length 460 mm (18 inches)
Weight 1.8 kg (4 pounds)
Minimum range traingin 30 meters (100 feet)
Combat 10 meters (33 feet)
Arming 10 meters (33 feet)
Maximum Range 2,100 meters (6890 feet)
Maximum effective range 300 meters (985 ft)
Launcher
Length 1,020 mm (40 inches)
Weight (complete system) 6.7 Kg (14.8 pounds)
Rear sight Range indicator , graduated in 50 meter increments
I would imagine the older tubes weighed considerable more considering an AT4 is fiberglass and some other light weight matterials. Just something to think about.
Oh and the 33 ft minimum combat/arming is when you get some cover. i would say inside of 20 to 15ft is pretty leathal.
Just a note i dont think arming distance cant be accounted for in mohaa. It would be pretty funny to fire a rocket and some guy 3 feet in front of you and "peg" him America's Army style.
