You need to adjust the [pivots of the] fire bones on the model in such a way that their X axis points straight up. Projectiles are always fired in the direction of the X axis, so change the axis and the projectile is fired in a different direction. Can also be used for interesting special effects with rocket salvoes (Shockwave's Rocket Buggy is a good example).
