Mini-grenade Launchers

"Mini-greandes" are a smaller, lighter version of a standerd grenade round. Mini-grenades are caeless rounds that have external dimensions of 25x45mm. They are cylndrical in shape and all packaging is consummed upon firing. They are popular with special forces, corporate raiders and mercs. The 25x45mm is the less popular of the two major standerdised chamberings for grenade launchers in the Empire, but they are gaining in popularity. The most common platform for these little lovelies is the Locris Syndicates model MGL-1. (see Galaxy Guide 10: Bounty Hunters for more information.)

For reasons of simplicity, only the forms of ammunition and the damage for these rounds will be given here. Their costs per round are equal to the cost of a normal-sized hand grenade of the same type.
