Grenades & Falloff
Most of the explosives in Shadowrun have absolutely enormous effective radii. Whether realistic or not, they're often impractical for gameplay.
- Gas — The radius is 5 meters. It takes twenty doses of a compound to fill a single gas grenade.
- Flash-Bang — These grenades have a radius of 5 meters.
- Fragmentation — These grenades have a fall of of 3/m, giving them a radius of 6 meters.
- High Explosive — These grenades have a falloff of 4/m, giving them a radius of 4 meters.
- Smoke & Thermal Smoke — These are okay; the published text specifies the size by diameter, not a radius. The text in Foundry is adjusted to indicate the radius, as that's how templates are drawn.
Grenades & Ranges
Use the range categories as per Shadowrun Fifth Edition Core Rulebook (p. 185), but instead of reducing the die pool as per normal ranged combat[1], increase the threshold by one each range bracket.
