Stat Modifiers
The incendiary shell is a type of mortar shell that upon exploding, deals 10 damage in a 2.9-tile radius (i.e. a 5x5 square) and sets the area on fire. As with all mortar shells, it explodes on deterioration to 0 hp or when damaged to 20hp.
Crafting
It is made using 20 steel and 20 chemfuel at a machining table. Requires crafting level 4.
Storage
As with all explosive items, these should be stored in separate storage containers. For maximum protection, put each stack of shells in a separate 1x1 stone box to prevent chain reactions. Pawns currently in a tantrum should be stopped at all costs, whether it be by arresting, creating another stockpile zone with a higher priority than the shell zone and prioritizing hauling the shells, or simply by shooting the pawn.
Version history
In 1.1 its crafting cost was increased (15 --> 20 steel and chemfuel cost).
