Special Consideration- 3 to Reliability. +2 against anti-material targets.
As well, becuase the grenades damage has little to do with the actual flight path of the round, the damage of the grenade is not added to the based roll. Instead or 10 (or 5 or 2) being added to the base "Damage + Dexterity + Firearms" roll, instead 3 is.
Essentially, substitute 3 for the "Damage Roll" when calculating the hit probability, and calculate damage sepretaley accordingly to the damage rating at the according distances.
An exceptional success (5 successes) is presumed to be within 5 yards of the intended target or targets, a success above 3 is considered to be at 10 yards, and success below 3 are considered within 15 yards. Obviously, no successes are considered a clear miss; although damage to the surrounding units or environment is considered and should be calculated accordingly.
