Without having the rest of the wording in front of me the bit you have snipped above says the narrow end must point “directly” at the shooter so it is in a straight line.

It could have been a compromise reseting results to original state, what's shown on dice. The combo is very powerful, but also very expensive.
The figures (except for the Gang Lookout ) and some of the weapons from this article are in the book on the painted examples pages.
There is a Matriarch with a plasma cannon and what looks like a bionic hand and an other one with a power hammer and Combi-bolt pistol/needle pistol. The body and head of this one also looks new to me.

It could be fun to create a Chem each visit to the dealer. Roll a d3, this determines the table you roll on. Roll another d3, this determines how many individual ingredients are in the elixir. Roll a d10 that many times to create the drug. Could get some mad combos!
Community often times coming up with cooler ideas than GW!
So how do you rationalise chem darts/chem delivery with the new toxic ammo. Do you think adding chem darts to Escher lists and requiring them is fair - as it equalises the system with other gangs - or should Escher have their own unique system? It just is annoying in not being the same 
I think it works, based on the two Toxic Ammos we've seen. Logic:
1) Chem Delivery lets you use the Toxin or Gas Traits instead of delivering chems.
2) 'Paralysing' and 'Bleeding' both say 'If a fighter is Injured by a weapon with the Toxin Trait with this Toxic Ammo applied...'
So I think that if you've applied a Toxic Ammo to a Toxin weapon and are using the Chem Darts to trigger Toxin, then you get all the benefits. You meet the criteria of a Toxin Weapon and you have applied a Toxic Ammo
However, I don't think the 'This does not use a dose of the Chem' applies, as you have to have already applied the Toxic Ammo to the weapon beforehand. I also don't think you can directly shoot the Toxic Chem Alchemy at them as it says it applies to weapons, not fighters.
However, you may be able to shoot them with Stimms?
This is all speculation based on the spoilers we've seen, btw. I don't have the actual book to confirm things

New Escher Stimms are applied either before the battle (after selecting crews) or as a Simple action during the battle. If applied during the battle, spend a Simple action. The target can be itself or a friendly fighter B2B. Made a summary of all chems:

Thanks for this, so when you create a gas or toxin ammo it becomes a limited ammo type for that weapon (and a single weapon only), so if your lucky and don't fail an ammo roll in the game it could in theory last multiple games?
Sorry I was unclear earlier. It is 'limited' to one battle only, but affects the weapon. So it's not the same as 'Ammo' we are used to earlier. Mechanically, it is a modification of the weapon that applies for a single battle. Equivalent to the 'Limited' trait in that when it is gone, you have to re-purchase.
EXPERIMENTAL ELIXIRS
Reduce the cost of Chem-Alchemy Elixirs by D6x10 (minimum 10). Roll for each purchase.
Well clearly the costs have had that baked into them. They expect every escher gang to run one.
Just to point out, you've made a transcription error here on Bleeding, based on what GW showed us in the preview.
After the Flesh Wound is taken in the end phase the token is removed, so the fighter won't continue to bleed, this makes a significant difference.
So Clan Chymist is compulsory for Escher to make use of their chems without going bankrupt?
Doesn't feel nearly as strong as the Goliath gene smithing, but I suppose it means if you have money to spare and your about to go into a tough fight you can blow a load of cash to make your girls terrifying...

Can Smoke Gas Grenades be upgraded? It's also weird that the GL in the list doesn't have other gas grenades - suggesting that smoke gas is meant to be combined with the chems...
What are smoke gas grenades?
Smoke is smoke, it has neither the gas trait nor gas in its name.
Presumably you could apply this to Scare Gas Grenades. Although most won't have ant effect since they don't cause injuries.
