Flamethrowers

Flamethrowers shoot streams of ignited liquid from a pressurized fuel reserve through a gun housing. An ignition system at the end of the spray nozzle ignites the fuel as it leaves the weapon, dousing the target in flame. Civilian models are used to clear brush or start controlled burns, but work just as well against vampires, werewolves, and other creatures of the night. Military-grade flamethrowers are used at greater distances, primarily to burn out fortifications.
The size of a fire sprayed by a flamethrower is equivalent to that of a bonfire (Damage 2) and burns with the heat of a gasoline fire (+2 Damage). Attack rolls use Dexterity + Firearms, but the user suffers a –2 penalty to attack if she does not pos- sess a Heavy Weapons Specialty in Firearms. When using the flamethrower for a long burst, Defense does not apply to this spreading attack. Armor only helps if it’s some kind of flame- resistant suit. If the attacker gains one or more successes, she inflicts damage up to the maximum the fire can inflict (4), as well as sets the target ablaze (inflicting the Burning Tag).

Stun: If dealing at least size damage, the target is stunned, loses her next action and halves her Defense until she can act.
