    “Dildo of consequence.” Not going to add that one to the campaign.

      Depends, if you’re defending your homeland from foreign invaders that have abandoned peace agreements then you’re golden. On the other hand if you’re a lazy lumberjack then you might want to call a lawyer.

        You know how mining is largely done with explosives these days? There is a timeline in which the same happened with logging. Imagine lumberjacks lugging around pounds and pounds of c4, retreating to a safe bunker a mile away, and clearing a whole forest at once

          Given how dangerous felling trees can be, I’m surprised this isn’t more common.

            You’re surprised that blowing trees up is probably a less safe and convenient way to fell them than using a chainsaw?

                Which is terrific because it’ll get you out of the range of all the wooden shrapnel that the tree-turned-frag-bomb is going to be throwing around. Guess what projectiles mean? Exclusion zones, baby! I sure do hope you love calculating and drawing those on maps, you’ll be doing a lot of it. And don’t think you can just draw it and not cordon it somehow, nu-uh.

                Apart from the extremely time-consuming nature of explosives work (because splody shit is dangerous), the waste of a lot of wood per tree, and the cost of all of this, it’s definitely a very convenient method. Would be super fun though, if not for all the zone-drawing bullshit and safety-schmafety
