Background
Edit
Modern handheld explosive devices like these are used by soldiers to clear enemies in a relatively small radius, and are easy to operate; simply hold down the safety lever, pull the pin, throw, and take cover. These instructions are simple enough, but many victims of mishandling, and their often-gruesome remains, continue to arise – even amidst the zombocalypse.
Used and produced exclusively by the military.
Tactics
Edit
The Last Stand 2
Edit
Despite their splash radius and lethality, hand grenades are surprisingly difficult to use, as they have a slow throwing animation and detonate on a timed fuse rather than on impact. This is exacerbated by the abundance of running zombies in Jonestown, where it can be obtained. It is best used to take out zombies bunched up at the barricade.
The Last Stand: Union City
Edit
In addition to its drawbacks from the previous game, it can now bounce back at the player. It's generally a good idea to throw the grenade right in front of a large and slow-moving group. The grenade will roll into the group and destroy it, with less risk of it bouncing back.
Notes
Edit
- There is a Damaged version present, but as of version 1.3, it does not have any differences in stats. This also applies for the M79 Grenade Launcher and RPG.
- Its ammo is almost impossible to replenish. However, if one throws their only grenade and double-swaps their weapons, they will get another grenade to throw. This is helpful if ammo is an issue.
How to Obtain
Edit
It can only be obtained through skilled/lucky finds in containers, or through lucky drops from zombies. A high Luck stat and a high Searching skill will assist in finding one.
Pros
Edit

Cons
Edit
- Slow to throw

- Very Rare
- Semi-impossible to find ammo
The Last Stand: Dead Zone
Edit
When thrown by right clicking anywhere, then clicking on the desired target, a Hand Grenade will explode after a short period of time, causing damage to anything (including friendly survivors) within its Effective Range.
Grenades are permanently consumed once thrown and each survivor can only bring a limited amount (determined by the carry limit) on a mission or raid.
There are several types available, but they are all characterized by high damage against personnel and relatively quick detonation, though they do not deal much extra damage against structures.
