Incendiary would most likely not do anything to humans more than a normal round
White Phosphorous on the other hand...would, my players and I didn't have any
good reference material (besides this list and prior knowledge) so we didn't
discuss it.

If I use an Ingram Smartgun (7M) The round strikes and does normal Stun effect
(knockdown rules are great here) Then it burns for 2 more rounds (7/3) and does
a 7M burn wound with ONLY armor helping against it's effects.

> >> Non-igniting napalm? How do you do that?
Basically the Igniting round is packed into the casing with a stable flammable
metal (magnesium) between the powder and the gel. Non-igniting doesn't.
Makes for really neat effects when somebody hoses somebody else down, knocks
them on their butt and then threatens to light a match!

Normal flechettes take the best armor value and double it. In this case soft
armor (Jackets, Armanti Suits, Clothing) get shredded easier. Security and
Full/Partial have hardened plates to bounce flechettes off of.

OK. Thanks for the feedback, I already realized that the napalm burn damage
needs a little revamping. And if I didn't explain something to your (or
anybody else's) satisfaction, _PLEASE_ ask. I get much better results when I
use stuff that has been SHADOWRN tested! :-)
