((Well this is horribly IC Oh hello Pufferfish!

Also it seems important to note who is in what squad unless we're mixed like now, in my opinion
But we only have one source of contact with anyone else.[/opinions]))

Good point!

Get behind a hedgehog, then began rolling it forward (while remaining behind it) so that I/we can advance.

How far away do I have to be from the bunkers before I have a reasonable chance of being able to chuck an improvised grenade in there?

A lot of stuff

Oh, cool, Twin's shooting WP at a bunker.  If that worked out, take a long range shot at one of Bunker 1's machine gunners.  Otherwise, aim the shot at a Bunker 2 gunner.  In both cases, follow Twin and take cover behind his body if he goes down.

((...I'm almost certain that it would be pretty much impossible to "roll" a hedgehog...it's about 400 lbs of solid steel that is not really close enough to round to be rolled.))

((Oh hey, I forgot that tank hunters get smoke rounds!  Firing those at the enemy bunkers is a really good idea.  Far better than trying to find cover on a mostly empty and flat beach, or trying to take a snapshot at a person in a fortified bunker...  Sadly, it seems that not a single person on your boat has heavy rifle skill, which M18s use for... some reason.  Ah well.

...Twinwolf?  You have the other M18.))

((* syvarris facepalms

Smoke rounds are the same thing as White Phosphorus rounds!  It's where the smoke comes from!  Yes, it also has an incendiary effect, because you're burning a very hot material to make a lot of very hot smoke.  That's how smoke works!

Why do you think the military in that game had so much WP ammunition?  If it were only meant for burning people alive it would be a war crime to even use it--it was meant to be used purely for rapidly generating smokescreens.  The protag of the game was using it in an illegal fashion to drive home the game's central theme _{and it was also a hilariously inaccurate depiction, seriously, it was depicted as utterly roasting people relatively far away from the actual explosion, and it was heavier than air.  If WP were anywhere near that effective, actual chemical weapons wouldn't get so much more attention than it.}))

Spoiler: Edit: Because someone's gonna say "But syv, there's other chemicals that are used to make smokescreens, and they aren't as incendiary" (click to show/hide)

Yes, this is true!  There's generally two types of smoke generation, slow and fast.  WP smoke is very fast, rapidly concealing a large area.  The primary flaw with it is that it is very hot, and because heat rises, it will float away.  It also tends to conceal more vertically than horizontally for this reason.  Other smoke munitions, mostly infantry smoke grenades, more slowly cover a large area with cooler concealing smoke; this lasts longer, but also takes much longer to conceal stuff.  It's also less vertical, so conceals a wider area.  Ideally, infantry want to use both types in an engagement--hot bursting smoke, so you have concealment now, and cold filling smoke, so that you'll still have concealment in a couple minutes.  Vehicles tend to move much more, and value immediate concealment more, so they mostly just use bursting smoke like WP.

Finally, this is all irrelevant.  You're only going to be killing allies on a 1, and you'll be doing something useful on a 2-6.  Sure, maybe it's magic ground-hugging hell gas, why does that mean you can't throw it at nazis?

((Still, I'd rather Winston find cover first rather than take the time to aim and get turned into swiss cheese for his trouble )
