Usage Notes
The usual tactic is to set the timer, drop them on the ground, run away. However, they can be thrown a useful distance by a strong soldier, so throwing them is a worthy experiment to try.
Bug: Dropping the high explosive rather than throwing it will often not attribute any hit experience to the person dropping the explosive if it hurts enemies in the blast. This is because the game will not assign ownership of the explosive to the right soldier until it is thrown.
To work around this bug, you must throw the explosive, during or well before its intended use. The explosive remembers the last person who threw it, and will award any experience to that person. This applies to all other grenades as well, with the exception of the proximity mine.
Tip: If set next to a UFO's diagonal wall, the explosion will go into the UFO and detonate navigation consoles on the far side. Roast 'em in the shell.
