EMP grenade mk I

A surprisingly heavy, egg-shaped, translucent grenade.

Perfect

A EMP grenade mk I is a thrown weapon which, when thrown, causes an EMP in the area where it lands, disabling EMP sensitive objects and creatures.

They are the weakest of the three EMP grenades, with a radius of only two tiles, and applies Pulsed to sensitive targets with a duration of 5 or 6 turns(1d2+4). This makes them preferable to characters without skills in throwing, as they are least likely to accidentally EMP themselves using the grenade, and risk turning off their own artifacts and implants alongside potentially triggering Electrical Discharge. However, their short duration makes any opening they create extremely short lived, and most cases it is better to forego EMP grenade mk I for the mk2 or mk3 grenades, which last a few turns longer, and have more range.
