EditGrenadierGrenadiers use various lobbed grenades, bombs, or similar devices to drop a wide variety of effects on targets. They can be quite effective with a good selection of ammunition. Grenade Launcher, Grenades, and Technique StuntsThe various Launcher Stunts allow a character to use Grenade Stunts at longer range; they are simply a launcher. Grenade Stunts vary in their effects, from relatively mundane damage infliction to more esoteric things like laying down an oil slick in an area or immobilizing targets. Other Stunts give a grenadier various enabling abilities or tactical advantages, and represent superior technique, skill, or helpful equipment. To be effective, a grenadier needs one or more Grenade Stunts, and one or more utility Stunts. A Launcher extends a grenadier's range, but isn't required. Area of EffectAlmost all Grenade Stunts affect an area and the grenadier is not immune to their effects themselves, so care must be taken. Relevant AbilitiesRanged Skill is used heavily and should be trained. Strength 3+, Intelligence 3+, Observation, Demolitions, and Athletics are required by some secondary abilities. EditLauncher
