THROWN WEAPONS
| GRENADE F1 F1 is a fragmentation grenade designed to damage the enemy personnel with shrapnel and shock wave upon explosion. It is a defensive type of grenade since its effective casualty radius is greater than that other grenades. It is also more expensive than RGD-5 since it causes more damage and has greater effective casualty radius. |
|
| GAS GRENADE Gas grenades are designed to help in a situation where the opponent has an advantage of controlling access to his area of the battlefield. Many encountered a battle where the opponent is sitting in a narrow space and is shooting at anything moving his way. A regular grenade will not help in this situation, a gas grenade could. The shock wave damage of a gas grenade is much smaller than that of a fragmentation grenade but the potency of tear gas compensates for it. Tear gas fumes created after grenade's explosion can effectively form barriers to enemy movement since they take a while to dissipate. |
|
| GRENADE RGD-5 RGD-5 is an offensive type of grenade since its effective casualty radius is relatively small. It is designed to damage enemy personnel with shrapnel and shock wave. If used in a mine can cause it to collapse killing some or all characters located in the room. RGD-5 is a favorite weapon of miners against higher-level marauders and corsairs. |
|
| FLASH GRENADE In the past flash grenades (a.k.a. flashbangs) were utilized by special forces to temporarily disable the enemy by blinding and deafening them for easy approach and kill or capture. This particular type targets enemy's sensory pigment in the eyes and temporarily blinds them for 1..4 turns. |
|
| ENERGY BARRIER Everyone knows that a surrounded person's chances to survive are slim to none. In a situation like that even a temporary protection from getting shot in the back or having a couple of turns to use a few Medkits on yourself will greatly improve survival chances. Energy barriers were created precisely for situations like that. In energy barriers energy is channeled to flow in such a way that it creates a protective field that can stop small and large projectiles and will not allow enemy to advance through it. Time and weapons fire will weaken the energy barrier so it should be considered as a temporary protection only. |
|
| ENERGY GRENADE XJ2 Modern grenades arsenal is not limited to pre-war types only. With development of such new weapons as laser rifles and devastators it was necessary to update the grenade arsenal too. This is how the XJ energy grenade came about. Unlike conventional grenades that utilize grenade's fragments, shock wave and high temperature of explosion to damage the enemy the XJ utilizes pure energy. Powerful energy wave generated by XJ's explosion will not just cause greater damage than a conventional grenade but also damage through armor that regular grenades cannot penetrate. |
