The Magna-Blast Grenade is X-COM's basic underwater hand grenade. It is, for all intents and purposes, identical to the old Grenade with the exception of a stronger protective casing.
The Magna-Blast Grenade is the weakest of the grenades in Terror From The Deep but is relatively cheap to buy and light to carry. It is a good weapon for weak or inaccurate aquanauts to train with.
A new feature for all grenades in Terror From the Deep are tougher cases that make them invulnerable to explosions that are equal or lesser than their own strength. This introduces a new tactic for grenades that mitigates the Magna-Blast Grenade's weak damage. Multiple grenades can be deployed in succession at the same target. This increases the amount of damage dealt on the same turn.
This weapon appears in Terror from the Deep. For the UFO: Enemy Unknown equivalent, refer to the Grenade.
For a more detailed explanation on various grenade particulars, such as the grenade timer, refer to: Understanding Grenades

Underwater Grenade Physics
Magna Blast Grenades and all other grenades in Terror From the Deep do not suffer from water resistance and can be thrown under water as easily as if they were on land. As this completely goes against physics as we know it, this requires some suspension of disbelief. To even attempt to explain it would require a lot of convoluted science fiction physics and a healthy does of 'making stuff up'.
Notes
- Magna-Blast grenades are immune to the explosions of other Magna-Blast grenades.
