 + 
 +==== Arming Grenades ==== 
 + 
 +A grenade can be armed as an automatic action. It  
 +can also be armed as a free (and automatic) action  
 +when it is thrown. You can arm a grenade to any of the  
 +following circumstances. 
 + 
 +ARMING           DETONATES                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           ^ 
 +**Immediate**    | Instantly (in your hand, just after being armed)((Errata))                                                                                                                                                                                                    | 
 +| **Short Fuse**   | At end of the arming character's turn (after they are completely done with their actions and movement)                                                                                                                                              | 
 +| **Phase Delay**  | At the end of the specified phase (0 to 6 phases)                                                                                                                                                                                                   | 
 +**Proximity**    | Select a number of squares when arming for proximity. The device arms at the end of your action (and move if any) just like short fuse above. The device detonates as soon as anything moves into a square within the proximity and Line of Sight. 
 +| **Remote**       | Whenever the remote detonation signal is given as an automatic action from an authorized wristcomp if on the same ship or Science Bay if in the same system. (This cannot be hacked.)                                                               | 
 +| **Combination**  | Any combination of the above.                                                                                                                                                                                                                       | 
 + 
 +==== Remote Detonation ==== 
 + 
 +If you have a [[..:equipment:wristcomp]], or [[..:modules:Science Bay]], you and your  
 +crew can detonate explosives you’ve set for remote  
 +detonation with a Science skill check.  
 + 
 +The distance is measured in squares for a wristcomp  
 +or hexes for a Science Bay. Add +3 to the difficulty for  
 +each additional remote explosive to detonate. 
 + 
 +(First Edition players note. You can no longer hack  
 +explosives armed for remote detonation.) 
 + 
 +==== Throwing Explosives ==== 
 + 
 +Explosives can be dropped in your square or an  
 +adjacent square as a free action. Grenades can be  
 +thrown by making a Combat skill check against 3+  
 +the distance to the target square. The difficulty to  
 +throw satchel charges is 3+ double the distance to  
 +the target. A failed throw puts the object one square  
 +closer per point of failure. 
 + 
 +==== Intercepting Grenades ==== 
 + 
 +Any character along the line of sight may take a free  
 +attack on the grenade to try to bat it, or fall on it.  
 +Characters with “reach” can intercept as if they were in  
 +squares adjacent to themselves.  
 + 
 +The difficulty to intercept a rocket powered grenade is  
 +3 higher.  
 + 
 +Each character gets only one free attack on a given  
 +grenade. Otherwise, we’d have “grenade-minton”. 
 + 
 +==== Batting Grenades ==== 
 + 
 +The target number to hit a grenade just like any other  
 +piece of personal equipment is 11. Grenades that  
 +are in flight do not give the attacker the -3 difficulty  
 +to the Combat skill check for a stationary target.  
 +Grenades are considered “in flight” for the rest of the  
 +phase they are thrown as they bounce to a stop. If you  
 +hit a grenade roll damage. A damage die result of “6”  
 +destroys it with no other effect. If the grenade is not  
 +destroyed, it can be batted by the interceptor a 1d6  
 +squares in a straight direction in Line of Sight. 
 + 
 +==== Falling On Grenades ==== 
 + 
 +You may spend your free attack to fall on a grenade  
 +in or passing through your square with no skill check  
 +needed. You are effectively taking a free action to turn  
 +the grenade into a [[..:rules:combat#Coup de Grace]] attack on yourself.  
 +The grenade will deal its effect twice to you (ignore  
 +Damage Reduction) but everything else that would  
 +have been in Line of Sight of the grenade (including  
 +the module) is now considered out of Line of Sight  
 +around 1 corner.
