Re: [HOE] Stupid Junker device...

Once again, I'm going to go against the "Marshal Rule, kill the bastard"
school of thought and say you should let him build it.  But look
carefully at the rules for that backblast: it says that it goes out to 30
yards in a cone (though it doesn't say how wide the cone is; you could
make it 180 degrees if you wanted), and if an obstacle gets in the way,
will spread out.  so if he points that backblast at something, the cone
will spread out around it, probably hitting the rest of the posse.  Use
it in a small room and the junker himself might get toasted.  I'd
definitely adjust the damage down a la Waste Warriors, since 4d20 massive
damage is very, very evil now.
The components that would go into making a rocket like that would be much
better used in a flamethrower-type weapon, which is more controllable and
can be used multiple times.
Oh, and as a tip for your junker, you don't need to put an actual warhead
on the rocket.  Just put one slot of empty space or something, and you
don't have tyo worry about who might get hit with that thing.
