Satchel Charge Range?

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know the distance you can set off a Satchel Charge? I plan on... blowing up 'the-place-that-shan't-be-named' and putting it up on youtube.

It is 300m. Thanks Tenedris Drako.

How far can you run on a 30second timer?

That's the range, you can experiment on doing the math and calculations yourself :D

100m seems to do the trick. You don't need to set a timer, you can "touch off" the bomb too.

Ive seen it set off from further than 100m.

I am hoping for a max range of 1000m... Because yeah. I don't wanna be near that accursed place.

I suppose I could do that Undead. I just thought someone might know.

Guess I should get around to flight training also for UH-1's.

Can you record your face as well? I'd like to see the disappointment on your face when you realise that 1 satchel charge will do nothing to any buildings except maybe blow out a wall.

It will be worth it. Any dent on that structure is worth it to me.

Playing the Base Arma II, Satchel Charges bring down buildings pretty fucking easily.

It matters how big the target it is of course, but 1 should do it really.

Right, I get the damage, but the range! Nggggk... how far can I be away to still be able to detonate it inside of the location I have place it on?

That I'm not so sure, sorry. I usually don't run far when I touch off an explosive. I'm usually only about 50-100M away from where I set it.

doesn't arma 2 have a firing range for testing crap but if not how many chardges do you have if its 3-4 then test one by placeing pissing off for the desired distance then see if the boom works

Satchel charge will not work at the place that should not be named. Its like the Bermuda Triangle everything goes missing when it goes there.

It takes 2 to bring down a supermarket. 2 minimum for a hospital, probably 3

Loaded up Arma II, placed a Satchel, and ran away from it until the "Touch off bomb" option disappeared

Also put down a personal map marker so I knew the number.

Did it in the Editor also :3
