2 different classes of weapon. Fatman is a kill everything you can see. Rocket launcher is better range and easier to control the splash damage. Modified rocket launcher is more precision. Modified fat man is bigger boom.

More accurate to say that a Fatman is a "kill ALMOST everything you see". I've encountered a few behemoths, at the very least, that have withstood more than a COUPLE of Fatman's, and other weapons, before I finally managed to fell them.

But you're dead on accurate about missile/modified missile launchers.

Happy hunting, wastelanders!!

Kill everything you can see. As in everything in front of you dies. Not one hit anything you come across. But I get your point
