Can alchemists throw nonlethal bombs?

You can make a nonlethal attack in an effort to knock someone out instead of killing them (see Knocked Out and Dying). Weapons with the nonlethal trait (including fists) do this automatically. You take a –2 circumstance penalty to the attack roll when you make a nonlethal attack using a weapon that doesn’t have the nonlethal trait. You also take this penalty when making a lethal attack using a nonlethal weapon.

No mention of exceptions, so we've field-ruled it as "sure, alchemists can throw non-lethal bombs."

Any rules we've missed?

Seems fine to me.

Not exactly sure how you could set someone on fire is a non-leathal way, but from a balance and game play perspective, it works.

It's easy, you just put them out before they get cooked.

Thanks, just wanted to make sure.

I guess it'd be more like "angle the blast to catch them in the shoulder" or whatever.
