Description
Characters with the Demolition ability can use the !bomb command to create a bomb object every 8 days. A grenade (!grenade) is similar to a bomb except it is smaller (i.e. less damage) and can be made more often (4 days instead of 8). The bomb or grenade's strength, as well as specific effects (see below), are dependent upon the skill of the maker.
Bombs will be a level 6 Area-Ranged attack with Ammo, Self-Destruct, and OneShot. (Bombs and grenades only have one use)
Grenades will be a level 3 Area-Ranged attack, also with Ammo and Self-Destruct. Grenades do not have OneShot.
Higher Intelligence and Technical stats will grant better effects to the bomb's attack (such as Cripple).
Commands
!bomb <Bomb Name>
!grenade <Grenade Name>
The resulting Weapon Object is created in your inventory. It will also show up under !attacks.
To use the weapon, type !attack <targets>=huge explosion for a bomb, or !attack <targets>=small explosion for a grenade.
Strategies
Bombs have the ONESHOT effect, meaning that a bomb can hit any number of targets. Typically this is everyone in the vicinity of the bomb regardless of whose side they're on. But as they are used just like a normal area attack, you need to choose these targets manually. Be sure to ask people where they are before using a bomb attack, or you might get some bruised feelings from players who have already retreated or who are ICly thirty thousand feet overhead or a hundred miles away manning a fort.
