Pick whichever is best in your case and convince pw to use that since he mixes rules. There.

The way I see it, a simple heave and throw would be str+dex, but doing something like cooking the grenade so it explodes just as it bounces off that far wall and around the corner would be uncon. That's just my opinion though...

No. I suppose there are similarities, but I'm fairly certain angry birds doesn't let me charge into a battalion of knights with a car made of circular saws.

Maybe it's a matter of layman vs specialist tests since Unconventional might be used in that case due to being an explosive and an alternative weapon that might fall into the skill's purvey - someone with no Uncon training could make a case for the dex+str throw, though with no bells or whistles. I for one like Unconventional including grenade-throwing since it means I can also do that with Milno's high Uncon. skill.

I like it using uncon because we really don't need even more things for dex to do, but it fits right in with uncon.

priming and throwing the greade uses uncon.

safely discarding the live grenade you were given uses dex+str?

Clearly running multiple missions at the same time is a terrible idea.  The epic battle to see which team can cock it up worse has escalated again.

And Larry kinda gets blueballed in all this; just left with a raging bone spear and no where to put it.

And not thinking it's a delicious treat is a general knowledge roll?

HMR stands for Hazardous Materials Requisition, not Horrible Massive Ruination, though I can understand how one could get confused.

That depends, you might think its a delicious treat if you fail Gen.Know., but you might figure out it's about to expire if you have good intuition and thus determine that it is probably a good idea to throw it in the trash.

Or, with proper biology (say, Ivan-treatment) and good Endurance, maybe you could actually stomach it's expiring contents. Because expiration dates on dairy products and fruits are for the faint of heart, right?

Quote from: Reply to Eddie Gracerei
It can be, if we run into the heavier resistance than anticipated. However, I see that you have an aptitude for guns rather than explosives, so I would suggest you buying a blaster rifle, if you can borrow a token or two somewhere - it's top of the line Conventional weapon of that price tier, so I can recommend it even for any later missions you might come to.
Of course, MCP-II is a very solid choice for any kind of missions, if you don't have one yet - well, unless you like the risks or fancy eventually adopting a robot body.
Quote from: Message from Eddie Gracerei to Mission Commander Maurice
I already have a primary in my Brisant, a secondary in this blaster pistol I'm buying, MCP-II armor with a charge of fleshknitter left, and an armored helmet, sir. Oh, and running stilts.
I'll save the tokens then.
Check out your inventory on the wiki then: it might have been a prototype (that got withdrawn after the mission testing), or there might have been a mishap (that happens at times), but you don't have a MCP-II according to it, much less a fleshknitter tank installed.

I guess someone changed that? I assumed that, since after the mission the mindfuck gun was already removed, I was allowed to keep the beaten-up suit and mostly-used can of fleshknitter.

Yeah, but after a mission they are automagically repaired, so effectively both items were at full capacity. Anyway, that sort of mishaps happens, I'm just pointing it out while you still have time to sort things out. :)

According to this: http://einsteinianroulette.wikia.com/index.php?title=Eddie_Gracerei&diff=10088&oldid=9877
Your prototype was removed some time after mission end. But it's only 5 tokens if you want it back, I think.

Ah yes, I was on mission equipment clearing rampage and wasn't aware of him being permitted to keep stuff.

I think Praef wanted to buy his assaultsuit at the end of the mission even if it took a few loans. Too bad it became a flaming object that crashed upon the Haebi. I also think he asked whether you get a discount when purchasing things in those cases - after testing them during the mission, not destroying them due to necessity.
