I've read through those sections multiple times, which is what I was referring to in my post. Those give info on damage and burning, but nothing about reload time, cost of ammo, weight of ammo, weight of ammo tanks. The flamethrower type gives the amount of liquid in gallons. Nowhere that I can see are prices for gasoline in general, napalm as he mentioned, etc. or rules for those things having different mechanics (the only mention is that TL7 flamethrowers can use thickened or unthickened fuel but again doesn't give any info on that). This is anomalous because every other gun & ammo in HT has stats.

Linking to a wikipedia page on flamethrowers isn't helpful at answering these questions.

Also can quick draw be used to reduce or remove the 2 rounds of set up time for a flamethrower?
