Damage: 6d10 Stun: — Type: Energy Mode(s) Single
Designed for use with zero-gravity stormtrooper armor, miniature proton torpedoes can rip through starship hulls. The launcher mounts into the zero-g stormtrooper armor’s left gauntlet, but enterprising Rebel engineers have adapted the weapon as a shoulder-mounted launcher. After launhing a miniature proton torpedo, the wielder must spend a standard action to reset the launcher, which holds 4 torpedoes.The miniature proton torpedo launcher is an area-effect weapon. When you make an area a ttack, you make a single attack roll; if your modified attack roll result is equal to 10 or higher, compare the result to the Reflex Defense of every target in the 2-square blast radius. Creatures that are hit take full damage; creatures that are missed take half damage. A natural 20 on an area attack roll automatically hits all targets within the affected area, but an area attack does not deal double damage on a critical hit. A target that has the Evasion talent takes half damage from a successful attack and no damage if the attack misses.
Alternatively, the weapon can be fired at a single target, acting as a focuesd weapon designed to take out starfighters and heavy vehicles. As a swift action, you can set the miniature proton torpedo launcher to single-target mode. In this mode, the weapon no longer functions as an area attack weapon, deals 6d10×2 damage, and applies a −10 penalty on attack rolls against targets smaller than Huge size.

Damage: 8d6 Stun: — Type: Energy Mode(s) Single
The shoulder-mounted PLX-2M is derived from Mer-Sonn’s Clone Wars-era PLX-1 portable missile launcher. Designed to punch holes through heavy armor, the “Plex-Twoem” is also a particularly effective antipersonnel weapon. The PLX-2M can be fired in direct mode, or it can be fired in heat-seeking mode or gravity-activated mode (providing a −2 penalty to the Reflex Defense of all targets of a particular type: character, droid, vehicle, or artillery). The miniature proton warheads in the PLX-2M’s Arakyd 3t3 missiles detonate on contact, damagin all targets within a 3-square burst radius.The PLX-2M is an area-effect weapon. When you make an area a ttack, you make a single attack roll; if your modified attack roll result is equal to 10 or higher, compare the result to the Reflex Defense of every target in the area. Creatures that are hit take full damage; creatures that are missed take half damage. A natural 20 on an area attack roll automatically hits all targets within the affected area, but an area attack does not deal double damage on a critical hit. A target that has the Evasion talent takes half damage from a successful attack and no damage if the attack misses.
The PLX-2M portable missile launcher holds six Arakyd 3t3 missiles and can be reloaded as a full-round action. Replacement missiles are available in packs of six, costing 350 credits and weighing 8kg. the PLX-2M weighs 48kg, but because of the launcher’s built-in microrepulsorlift, the weapon does not count against encumbrance when it is carried as a character’s active, drawn weapon.
