Napalm

Recommended Posts

you could almost guarantee that some prick would just plaster every popular loot spot with it though

hehe, yep, be sweet on the wooded hillsides though, sniper hill wouldn't be the campers favourite haunt for long

"Sticky" gasoline. Easy as hell to make. Why not?

If my old chemistry teacher is to be believed all you need is petroleum and sugar to make a rough form of napalm, both of these ingredients would be pretty easy to source.

I don't think the military grade 'raining death from above' type of ordinance would suit dayz at all, but smaller less devastating bomblets could feasibly be dropped from a chopper and would definitely add something new and interesting to the game.

How would you deploy it? And it needs the chance that it horribly combusts on your face while you are cooking it.

the great thing about napalm is it isn't explosive and only the area exposed to air actually burns. It's effectiveness comes when it splashes and spreads about suddenly exposed to the air, instantly igniting, sticking to every surface and burning at extreme temperatures.

So you could for example hold an old bean can or a bucket full of the stuff, light it and then drop it from a chopper or rooftop quite safely, the energy released by the force of the impact 'detonating' the bomb. The chances of hurting yourself are slim, unless say you were too close or shot or knocked by a zed mid throw, then you'd surely wish to god you hadn't bothered with it.

EDIT maybe leave a couple of napalm filled bean cans in a strategic position, then, once a poor unsuspecting bandit/survivor/hero passes by throw a molotov cocktail. (this would give the fabled bean can a slightly sinister twist). Or light a campfire and drop/throw a few balloons full of unlit napalm onto it, or wait for a player to light his fire then just as he's reaching for the steaks WOOF, flambee.

I reckon there might be many ways to inflict serious harm with some gasoline, a little sugar, a naked flame and a bit of imagination.
