Re: In the Shadow of the Mushroom Cloud
In reply to Elliot Charles Pendergrass (msg # 428):
Although it struck its target, Elliot's 40mm HE grenade was within it's 30m arming range. It thumped into the sandbags but did not detonate. This was lucky as his team-mates, and probably himself, were in the blast and fragementation radius.
Over at the south and west end of the camp, armed men were staggering out of the tents where the mercenaries were quartered. They were coughing at the tear gas, and half-dressed, But some at least were still looking for a fight. One of them, it was hard to tell, was yelling at the others, trying to get them organised, but was having little luck due to the darkness, confusion, deafness from loud nearby explosions, and of course tear gas.
PD Note: I should mention it is a new turn. Everyone can take their actions.
Addendum: Elliot's 40mm HE grenade hit it's target within minimum arming distance and therefore could not detonate.
