I'm a bit confused about those prices. Why does the proton torpedo launcher cost less that the concussion missle launcher?

Looking at the Tech Manuals for the X-Wing (If I remember them correctly), the Torpedo Launchers are designed like "Metal Storm" (Something that wasn't even invented at the time!), where each "Round" is stacked on top of one another.

Concussion Missile Launchers, however, require a reloading system, which is mechanical, thus more expensive to manufacture.

Add to that the fact that Missile Launchers are more commonly purchased by Freighter Bums (Less paperwork, only slightly less punch) than Torpedo Launchers, and you got a supply/demand difference.

Made sense to my group, at least.

Ray.

For those who have had players wish a Prax arms HP-4, have you noticed they are missile weapons, not firearms???

I did, when i was wanting my character to get one, so i had one custom made as a firearm variant. It included an intergral silencer and flash supressor, bipod, and 50X45 scope (50 times magnification, 45mm opening). Cost me 2000 credits more, and only had a 6km range, but worth it IMO. But then again the character (who is now dead) never used it for more than 2 km shots... Primarily cause we never had encounters where i used it more than that range.
