It has the same chance of hitting (I think) as any other thrown device, and while it will not kill very many things it may kill jackels, bats, eyes and Kobolds. The true advantage comes from hitting--the object is removed from the game! From the Soapbox of Tom Condon {...!uw-beaver!teltone!teldata!tac} A Radical A Day Keeps The Government At Bay.
