Common

Mods
  • Sight
  • Grip
  • Accessories
  •   Magazine Size: 1 (Each attack is a single shot)   Cartridge: Grenade   Special Maneuvers
  • Stabilized Shot - Before moving on your turn, reduce your movement to 0 to give yourself advantage on a ranged attack with this weapon
  • Direct Fire - Make an attack roll instead of designating a point at a target within range. A direct hit with the grenade will deal an additional 2d4 Piercing damage to the target, ignoring armor. A creature that has been directly hit will have disadvantage on the saving throw against the Explosive saving throw. If the attack misses, the grenade will sail past the target and hit any vertical surface in its path or travel to the end of its effective range, then detonate.
  • Indirect Fire - Designate an open space behind cover. There cannot be an obstacle interrupting the path.
  • Load Alternate Ammo - Using a bonus action to load a new round, swap for the desired grenade type assuming they're in possession, with one of the following effects

  • Beehive (Flechette blast dealing 6d6 Slashing damage in a 30ft line),
    High Explosive (3d8 Force Damage + 1d8 Fire Damage in a 20ft Radius),
    White Posphorous (2d8 Fire Damage, 15ft radius, 1d8 persistent fire damage in radius for 1d4 rounds, dispersed with wind),
    Rubberized (6d6 bludgeoning, single target, non-lethal, can cause dazed status if saving throw fails),
    Flashbang (Blinds and deafens targets in 15ft radius for 1 rounds if they fail the saving throw, dazed for 1 round if they succeed),
    Chemfreeze (3d8 Cold Damage in a 15ft radius, halved movement for 2 rounds on failed save, half damage and halved movement for 1 round on successful save)     Special Properties
  • Light Anti-Armor - Deals full damage to vehicular components, vehicles, and constructs with medium armor or less
  • Explosive - Deals radial damage in a 15-foot radius from the impact point - must hit an object, creature, or a surface - Each creature in a 15-foot-radius sphere centered on that point must make a Dexterity saving throw. A target takes 4d4 force damage and 2d4 fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. The saving throw is a DC12 + Proficiency Bonus Dexterity saving throw unless otherwise stated.
  • Arming range - Has a minimum distance at which the rocket will explode The rocket must travel a minimum of 20 ft. before it will detonate - otherwise it will only deal direct hit damage
  • Ricochet - If fired at a surface within arming distance and at an angle shallower than 90 degrees it can ricochet: Mirror the angle at which the weapon was fired to ricochet the shot
  •   Loading: Uses a bonus action to load 1 round, must use a free hand   Jamming: The weapon does not jam   Handling: 1-handed (Collapsible stock, -5 to hit directly while 1-handed) / 2-handed (Normal stock)

    The Morgan Arms GL-79 is a break-action breech-loaded single shot grenade launcher, boasting a simplistic, rugged design that seems to never fail. Nicknamed the Thumper, the GL-79 makes a distinctive 'Thwump' sound when fired. So many of these were produced during a major jungle conflict in the Westlands that it's entirely normal to find these in the hands of bandits and thugs. It's lightweight and portable, which helps a lot with its usability.
