  • The XCOM gauntlet is an advanced device that carries both a mini-rocket launcher and a flamethrower.
  • The Rocket Launcher carries one rocket initially and that has a three-tile radius for its area of effect.
  • It may target anything in sight range.
  • Damage from rockets falls off from the point of impact.
  • The flamethrower is a short-range weapon that causes damage to multiple targets within a cone-shaped area of effect spanning 5 tiles wide and and 7 tiles length.
  • The flamethrower has two uses per battle. It does not damage mechanical units without upgrades.
  • Using either gauntlet ability requires one action and ends your turn.
  • Rocket accuracy is affected by the soldier's aim, target distance, and whether the soldier has used any actions already this turn. Low accuracy-rockets will have higher scatter values, meaning they are more likely to miss the target tile by greater distances. The rocket's maximum possible scatter is noted in the popup, while a value appearing with the targeting cursor will show the expected (average) scatter for a shot on that location.
