Sounds like if range is limited you'd need an array of multiple launchers, strategically distributed around the office to provide the most efficient coverage.
That would be especially awesome if multiple launchers engaged in the attack, resulting in a multi-directional barrage.

(Wherein guys on a project I worked on had an Atlassian Bamboo CI server hooked up to the USB rocket launcher)
I work at the OSUOSL. Some of our finer (read: less uptight) patrons occasionally donate Nerf weaponry. Getting shot at with Nerf guns is not uncommon, and really isn't that big of a deal. I do not constantly glance over my shoulder in fear of a Nerf raid.

If you break the build, you get to wear a ridiculous party hat, until you fix it.
On the upside, we have beer.
(We also have a USB launcher, but only because we had to make sure all USB devices we could think of would work with our software.)
As someone working in this office I must warn others of the constant fear this little device instils in you. It's like working at aperture science, the emphasis on testing is maniacal.

Which is why 'Russian Army' is synonymous with productivity and effectiveness.
What is to stop developers from logging in remotely to commit changes, knowing that any attack will be directed at an empty chair?
I doubt anyone would be threatened enough by foam projectiles to try to circumvent it. Now, getting someone else attacked for no reason is a different story. That would be amusing.
