Firestorm

Firestorms are a Cyndicate artillery piece. The term can refer to either the vehicle that shoots them or the missiles themselves.

Description
The Firestorm vehicle itself is a large truck that carries two of the missiles on top of it. It is lightly armed, but sport heavy armor protecting the crew inside from even almost point blank shots of the missile.

The Missile is a 30-foot long monster that is known for being fired from long distance (usually 2-3 miles away) and for curving up until it goes into the stratosphere. At that point, it curves down, gaining speed and velocity until it usually contacts ground with a speed of 610 mph just in the transonic range.

Effect
While the Firestorm missile pertains to a certain type of missile when used in this context, the truck can fire a multitude. Also, Firestorm missiles can be launched from stationary launch sites.

When a Firestorm crashes, most things in the area are instantly vaporized, destroying anything short of Cyndicate heat proof shielding. However, this usually occurs at the center of contact and loses its effect as it zooms out. A typical missile has a max diameter of 0.273 miles. Things inside this area are usually covered in thermite by the reaction and are subjected to 2500 °C temperatures; however,   Finally, a material is used that makes the area burn at temperatures between 700 °C (at the area's edges) and 5000 °C (at its center). Due to this, the area usually melts down into a crater. Also, random explosions caused by the reaction with oxygen and other materials may randomly occur.
