Makeshift poison smoke grenade (anti-camper)

[Gordon Axeman 191]

I think all of you people have encountered a situation, when a camper is sitting somewhere, and there is no way to pass through. If anyone was in Object AII in Namalsk, you will understand me. Only one ladder, and no way to fight back from up there.

I offer a solution. We can make smoke grenades using ammonium nitrate. They create caustic, thick black smoke. But I don't think that its craft must be cheap and easy. It mustn't, because the campers get severely disadvantaged.

Howto:

We need a water canteen, some ammonium nitrate (IRL 300g, maybe spawning a little bag in barns ingame?), several newspapers, a piece of rope for the fuse and an empty can to act as the grenade body.

When the grenade is crafted, you must dry it upon a fire or wait 6 hours for it to get dry.

How it works:

The grenade is lit and thrown (by the way, you'll need matches!). 3 seconds after being thrown, it begins creating the smoke. It spreads a bit wider than the smoke grenade. And the main thing: everyone, who gets into the smoke, has blurred vision, shaking aim (like from low temperature, not stronger!) and coughs periodically. The effects progress over time. Staying in the smoke for long time causes unconsiousness.

Pros/Cons:

Pros:

-Nice for city engagement

-No need to search military hotspots

-Can be still used as an usual smoke (signal, etc.)

-If a camper doesn't pop up you can go and take him hot (after the smoke fades)

-Suitable for checking places out (victims cough!)

Cons:

-Components take much space

-You can get yourself trapped, if use this wrong

-Best used in closed places like rooms

-Takes time to smoke out the enemy

This sounds like a great idea. Although only if those bags are a rare spawn.

Beans for you! ^_^

Thank you.

About rarity: I think, the bags should be rather common, but spawning in uncommon places. Like these little grey sheds.

One more thing is that you will have to look for many different (while common) components. Or go into a city to get everything at once, but this may get ya killed. Also the components consume a lot of inventory space. So it doesn't need to be pretty rare. Uncommon? Maybe.

Thx anyway ^_^

couldn't there just be a tear gas grenade? rarer than finding smoke grenades but they are basically the same thing only it makes aim shaky, loud coughing, blurred vision etc like you listed.

Why not? But this is another theme yet.

I think this thing will just make the game more... survivalish! Everything that you make yourself to survive is very interesting. Lots of suggestions about craft have a base, huh? In a survival situation man always tries to create something helpful.
