Fire Extinguisher stats and effects in combat

kdtipa · 05-30-2010, 02:49 PM

I know there are several kinds of fire extinguishers, and obviously many sizes. I am wondering if anyone here knows a decent amount about the varieties, and what effects they actually have if you fire it at a person.

I'm also looking for behaviors (like do they just spray clouds, a beam of liquid, how far, and so on) that would have a bearing on how to define the targeting.

Finally, how do I stat one up as a weapon in GURPS? What effects would it have if sprayed? How do you rule it if used as a bludgeoning implement?

I ask because there's a good chance it'll come up in the next session I will run. I didn't see another thread about this anywhere, so I apologize if there's already a thread. I also didn't see stats in the basic set, but I could have missed them. If someone can point me to those, that would be good too. :)
