I'd say it would come in with a close second personally. Stupid concepts with
Grenades...ranks right up with there with the decker in our game (it was a
young girl character-older guy player, you figure this one out ;) who
couldn't touch the "thing" (or was this one an "it"??? I can't seem
to keep
'em straight at times...) with any weapon she had (none, we had all gone into
a maximum security wing at a hospital). So she whips out her hair spray can
from her book bag/backpack, which was actually a canister of Liquid N2. Flops
on her skateboard, and shoves the whole thing underneath nearly all our feet,
which then winds up under the thing/its feet, which steps on it, the whole
thing explodes (contents under pressure 8-), freezes it's right foot, takes
out a chunk of my characters lined long coat (thank the GODS I had thing
bought oversized), and I won't even begin to mention what it did to the saline
solution which had already been spilled early on....
