Designer Notes
Ironically based on the flamer-equipped Magma Jaguar, the Firefighter was introduced in TN 1922 as a standard modification package for the Magma. The Firefighter has its flame cannon modified to fire chemical flame-retardant foams and uses an additional standard GH-8 rocket pod equipped with rockets that spray a similar foam in addition to two GH-18 rocket packs (which also use foam rockets). The Firefighter dispenses with the standard anti-personnel grenade launcher and vibroknife in extchange for a heavy vibroax used for getting through burning structures. Because the Firefighter may be called on to operate continuously in fire storm conditions, the polymer cloths on the joints and the heat-resistant coating have both been thickened and augmented by a dedicated, self-contained cooling system. Northern and Southern tacticians have noted that reconverting Firefighters to Magmas is a matter of a few hours for any competent technicians and the two units are often deployed together.
