Lighter/ Molotov cocktail

Timestamp: --Peter Mason 21:49, 1 May 2011 (BST)

Type: New Weapon

Scope: survivor

Description: Okay, there should be a new item. There should be a lighter that you can use to set a gasoline soaked zombie on fire. It should have a base accuracy of 10% and not be able to be raised. Then you should also be able to use the lighter to make a molotov cocktail out of the wine and beer. It should have a base accuracy of 10% and be able to be raised to 25% with hand to hand combat. It should do (3)? damage to all zombies in the square. It could also do "damage" to the building that could be fixed maybe by construction or you migh just have to fix it like a bloodstain. If you miss with the cocktail you lose the bottle. I know this has been suggested as a light source but it wouldn't be used for that.--Peter Mason 21:34, 1 May 2011 (BST)

Discussion (Lighter/ Molotov cocktail)

-fixed the formatting for you there. You can already set zombies on fire using a flaregun/ oil can combo, have you tried that? Also, my pee burns hotter than wine or beer. --Karloth Vois ^¯\(°_o)/¯ 16:20, 2 May 2011 (BST)

You should get that checked out, Karl. I've been there, and it's bad news. As for the suggestion, I think the base accuracy should be 100%. 150% if the zombie is a member of The Dead. --Paddy Dignam^{IS DEAD} 18:37, 2 May 2011 (BST)

Area attacks with no set limit are a very bad idea as anyone who has seen a big seige can probably imagine. Even with limits such suggestions are very unpopular.... --Honestmistake 22:43, 2 May 2011 (BST)
