Hey Steve,

Just wanted to know: why was the MARS "Screaming Mimi" Incapacitor Grenade (MC p.61) built with a Flash to Hearing Group linked to a Flash to Sight Group instead of using the +5 point adder that allows to Flash an extra Non-Targeting Sense Group?

Was it just so that to allow for the fact that one could recover hearing before sight (or vice versa)?

As an aside, does a fragmentation grenade do Physical damage or Energy damage? I was looking at the VIPER frag grenade (CU p.146 sidebar), and it doesn't say. I always found that grenades a bit ambiguous (apart from the fact that they HURT! :D)

1. I don't recall that I had any particular reason. It just "felt better" to me, I s'pose.

2. They do physical damage.
