Rocket Rifle

The Rocket Rifle has a decent rate of fire, and launches small explosive warheads that have some homing capabilities. They don't do a lot of health or shock damage, but they do a lot of force damage. This weapon is good for knocking people out of the way, or taking down airborne enemies at range.

Offensive Tactics

 * Goalie Disruption. If you're assaulting the enemy goal room, try to use the rocket rifle to blast the area around the enemy goal. If it's congested with defenders, this weapon can help clear a path for the ballcarrier.  At the very least, it will get their attention focused on you instead of the ballcarrier.
 * Ball Push. One tricky move for halfbacks is to shoot at a loose ball with the rocket rifle. Is the enemy about to grab the ball and you're not close enough?  Take a shot with the rocket rifle and knock it away!

Defensive Tactics
There aren't many ways to avoid the low-grade irritation that the Rocket Rifle causes. Either run away (if you're a forward with the ball), or get close enough to beat the tar out of the halfback (if you're a fullback).
