No sniper can shoot at an enemy combatant if the sniper cannot hit the trigger for the explosives, there by using one bullet to kill more then one enemy combatant. Cost saving, don't cha know?

Don't want to slight the sniper any. Was a good shot and got really lucky. We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back.....
