Re: [HOE] Burst Radius/Damage question

I will next time.  I think I forgot about those for the time being.  I just
chalked it out to being say... A faulty Self Distruct chip.  After all, the
"Detonate" spell set off EVERY shell before the Self Distruct got a chance
to explode.  However, the next time... I figure those guys are toast since I
have at least one more.
