RNG hates me?

I have to test it some more, see if its just RNG.

If it happens to your this consistently, there is a good chance you are aiming the grenades wrong. As far a I know, the damage done by the grenades also depends on the position of the infantry in the house. If you are throwing it to the wrong position, its chance to deal very little damage is higher of course.
A replay would really help so we could see if this is the case.

That said there's a weirdness with the perception of the health bar, and how grenades work.

Grenades really work best if the target squad or men are even slightly damaged to start.

If they aren't, it will seem like the grenade does nothing. But if they are slightly damaged, it's highly likely a grenade will kill a lot of men or do massive damage.

+1. Grenades go where you click, not just in the building. Aim for the window with the MG.

How exactly are you thinking RNG would be involved here?

I assume its RNG, or you have better explanation? I am all ears

RNG on what stat and how?

Or are you just saying RNG cos it sounds cool?
RNG, vacuum, MVGame, asymmetric?

The only RNG involved is this:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/lv?key=0ApmrrrPr20ncdEpuSHcxNko1VGVFYjczYXpFZWhqOHc&f=true&noheader=true&gid=12

The rest is either:
A) Your poor placement of the grenade.
B) You expecting the Nade to do more than it actually does, and are exaggerating your reports as you did when you complained that a SU85 missed 3/4 shots when infact according to the 50% movement accuracy modifier it should statistically miss 2/4 anyways, and only 4 shots where fired alltogether.
C) Try to raise your threshold for posting in a whining tone that RNG has somehow been unfair to you please, thanks. I assure you that most times it is something completely unrelated to RNG, and far more related to the player.
