"Tenderize meat thoroughly, then apply flame"
Excerpt from the TKA/COMMANDO field cook book
Weaponsmiths are having a hard time pricing them. Demand isn't high, and they require two subcomponent assembles (Light Warhead mech and Warhead fusing assemb) just to make.
So for a WS to make you one (which is a stack of 5 of course), they're going to put as much resource into it as they do making a firearm.
Personally, I think under 500 credits is way too cheap per grenade and over 1000 makes them too costly. (I sell my charged heavy weapons for 1k per shot, except RLs which cost waaaay too much to make)
Oh, one thing I forgot to mention, yes their damage is around 1350. But the HAM costs are rediculous, you can't use many per fight without seriously hurting yourself. With my Commando, I wear full adv composite, so more than 1 or 2 grenades a fight is out of the question.
The only saving grace is that they grant Combat Exp exclusively.
