PROS and CONS

[headquarters]

yeay!

I will not raise a formal complaint on this issue but you did ask for my opinion. No hard feelings though; in the end YOU ARE THE BOSS OF ME! ! !

cool! now drop and give me 20!

I did ask though -so dish it out .Give an example of how much shockwave damage -concussion and how much heat damage you would say is fair from a 250 kg tank blowing indoors like that

C:10 ( 10D12 and B: 20 ( 20 m primary shrapnel range and 40 m secondary shrapnel range )

plus 1D6 pr phase dmg for any location hit by burning gas was my theory .

And certainly now hard feelings-we are discussing serious science here !

You know, the reason I did not say any thing, in addition to the fact that the content of the container was unknown, was that I believe that standing right next to two hand grenades blowing up a 250 kg gas tank would instantly kill a normal human being. I inserted the "normal" to leave room for freaks of nature - just like us.

I know from the fire department in Oslo, that propane canisters of under 10 kilos have lifted buildings from their seating and torn verandas clean off of building faces. The shock wave is enormous. A diving tank filled with compressed air can shoot through a wall if the valve comes off. In the US they use aluminium tanks, and I've seen some photos of what can happen when they explode from wear - it's not pretty.

yeah but..

It was punctured first though -you guys were shooting the heck out of it before it blew , and I had the ignition down to the thermite one rocket scientist threw at it a few phases early that landed close .

So it wouldnt have been all of it going up at once either -an anomaly as far as explosions go.

For the record C:10 B:20 plus 1D6 /phase burn damage will more than likely kill a more regular/average character.
