Function
The Chemical Thrower sprays a stream of pressurised Tiberium waste particulate. It is considered an improved version of the Flamethrower, having higher damage output, and retaining the ability to damage everything to a decent degree, having more clips that can be "sprayed and prayed" over, and still being devastating against buildings en masse just like the former. Same with the Flamethrower, its only drawback is its extremely short range, requiring the wielder to close towards their opponents.
The Chemical Thrower has also the most amount of ammunition among all weapons, possessing 1000 rounds before running dry.
Tiberium will contaminate infantry for periodical damage and bypass any kind of armor reduction.
