Hedgehog Grenade
Capacity: 6
Throws per Minute: 60
Range: 3/5
First Acquired: First Playthrough - Grimsby 'Fate Worse Than Death'
Other Info: Online Mode
The Hedgehog Grenade, is a Chimeran weapon and the only
Chimeran grenade in the game. It was developed as an antipersonnel weapon
as humans are weak to spikes.
Once thrown, the grenade lies dorment until it reacts with the floor. Then, it springs up from the ground and explodes, sending spikes flying in all directions. This
makes it a valuable asset, as you can plan where you wish the grenade to detonate. The grenade itself is used frequently by
Chimeran forces during the game, but they also have a trap which
causes a similar effect and they can be deadly, so be weary of them.
Obtained: The Hedgehog Grenade is acquired during the first playthrough in Grimsby - "Fate Worse Than Death". After picking up the
Rossmore 236, continue a small way through the level and the
Hedgehog Grenade is in a doorway.
Tip: Throw the Hedgehog Grenade slap bang into the middle of a pack of low-order
Chimera and listen to their muffled cries of pain and anguish.
