Soldier Bombard Ability, Grenades and Hybrid Grenades

[racs333]

The soldier bombard ability to create grenades, it doesnt specify regarding the types of grenades. Does that include hybrid grenades as well. or specifically just normal grenades. this is for a society build so want to double check, it doesnt say specifically which types of grenades.

The ability says they can create any grenade. I'd say they can create any grenade.

Huh, a summoner bombard soldier sounds pretty awesome actually.

For society would you also need the AA1 to use summon grenades? You'd want to pre-build any summons at a minimum, but do you need the source of what the grenade is doing, or only the grenade?

For that, you would need to own Armory, you would not need to own Alien Archive.

You would definitely need to use the rules in Alien Archive to build your summons before you show up, though, and would need the summon monster rules on hand, in some form, in case they had to be referenced. So having AA would be advisable, because the game should not end up stopped because you're trying to get to an SRD on your phone, only to find that the network access at your venue is terrible and the site isn't loading.
