Default Re: Help me stat a steam thrower weapon

Well yes it probably does require some hand wavium, but pressure tanks to the specification above are common in our society, and pressure release valves should prevent an explosion.

I'll leave you with this quote:

In 1988, there was a steam line failure at the Mohave station in Nevada, USA. The hot reheater P11 pipe failed , at 31 bar,g and 593 C temp ( design temp was only 540 C, and it was overheated for 1 yr prior to failure). It failed outside of the plant cafeteria, and killed 11 operators who were eating lunch in the cafeteria.
