Post Cool Way To Make Huge Explosion/Raining Bombs. (Without Mod)
What I love doing, is to fill up a 20 oz crate with plenty of Napalm bombs and make it land very near or on top of the enemy, when it hits the ground it normally creates a huge explosion after the first napalm bomb comes out and destroys the crate itself. (Or when the crate reaches 0 health.)
Or if it hits an aircraft on the way down it explodes and the rest of the napalm bombs come raining down. (You can also do this effect by scuttling the crate in mid-air.)
It's hilarious!

P.S I don't know if anyone has thought of this, someone else probably has but I'm just putting it out there because I think it is awesome =)

Yes, this is rather well known.
An alternative is to make Crabs buyable and then filling a crate with about a hundred or so. It overfills the MOID limit, causing random actors to gib, as well as throwing high-speed crab gibs everywhere. I once did it with 300 crabs. Scuttle in mid-air for better results.

If you fill up a drop crate with baby mod and drive it into the ground, random limbs appear in the sky. I've never noticed this with any other actor.

But yeah, this is very much old news.


Ever try shooting C4 horizontally with a Peacemaker? It's actually a mildly effective attack.

I like to refer to this as a "Crab Hammer", mostly because of the mod under the same name. Good stuff.

I thought it was universally known as the Crab Bomb. Crab hammer is okay, too, I guess...

Chips are crisps in England, fries are chips, football is soccer, soccer is football, Tis merely a name!
Crab Hammer just sounds cooler than a crab bomb. Also, someone made a mod that was basically a crab bomb based rocket called the Crab Hammer, so I like to call it that.

I made a bomb that shoot razor blades (it doesn't work well :-( ) anyway, here is mah way to make bomb rain.

1 step : Fill a dropship with 50 bombs (never enough);
2 step : fly above the enemies;
3 step : SCUTTLE !
The bombs AND the gibs will kill all the enemies (normally).

Yeah, i like to make Cluster bombs by giving the rocket some horizontal momentum then scuttling it. Though it works best on looping maps.

Another thing to do is fill a dropship layered with Crab then a couple bombs crab then bomb crab then bomb... Fly the dropship horizontally at high speeds dropping them everywhere. Continue to fly at high speeds then scuttle in mid air. The layer of explosive crabs will die simultaneously, killing everything.

This also happens when you use the pheonix potion on some sort of exploding body then destroying it, like the nuke head. I also saw rains of arms and legs in the corner of the screen, and the nuke never ended.

Someone needs to do something about these threads, there's a new one every week.

NEWSFLASH: WE ALL UNDERSTAND THAT CORTEX COMMAND LETS YOU PUT BOMBS IN A CRAFT.
Seriously, using explosions and bombs and crushing things? in a physics-based war game? WOW HOW COOL!

:roll:
