📋 About This Mod
Scrap And Shrapnel - A Makeshift Handmade Grenade Pack
S&S adds 7 new grenades built from scrap, salvage, and whatever survivors could find lying around!
Wasteland engineers, settlers, and scavvers learned to make their own explosives after the Great War, crude, dangerous, and effective.
From settlement defense to raider ambushes, handmade explosives became a common sight across the Commonwealth.
The grenades can also be crafted in the chembench after getting Rank 1 of Gun Nut and Demolition Expert! All
explosives added by this mod are 100% lore friendly and should fit seamlessly into 4’s world.
All of these explosives have been added to level lists, containers, vendors, etc. So that way you can find these babies out in the world!

Literally everything
Let it overwrite any conflicting files if you (for reasons not even God could explain) have any, (but you shouldn’t because I didn’t touch nothing vanilla wise except the LL’s).
