Make them one group. Use the nifty little option in the groups tab that says "regroup"

Yes. Other shapes than boxes are encouraged, as long as they are low in faces/verticies. Boxes are mostly good for testing purposes, but are usually pretty glitchy. I always use a size 1 geosphere for my collision mesh.
Edit: Oh shat, blastdown beat me to it. Since I already typed it up, I might as well post it.

And on an unrelated Subject, What is the joint required for a projectile to emit a particle.

Collision meshes are the same as regular shapes within Milkshape. It is only within Blockland that they become 'special'. However, you should use "Regroup", as I mentioned above.
Any joints can emit particles. You might as well use muzzlePoint, because it is already there.

And what about the point at which a projectile will explode. Is that a collision mesh or a joint

That's script related.

It's the center of the hitbox
