What to take from this

A C4 stuck to a block does full damage anywhere on that block and none to the blocks next to it. One left loose beside the join of two walls did 178 to one wall instead of 275.

Stone, sheet and armored walls all take 275 from a C4, and a stone floor took 275. Count comes from HP, not a different C4 hit.

A satchel on stone is 51.5 (10 to break a stone wall). An F1 grenade did under 1.
