Thunder Bombers are one of the most feared
units on the battlefield. They use primitive
gunpowder weapons - iron flasks filled with
gunpowder - that they throw into the enemy
ranks. The resulting explosion causes panic
and confusion, as well as death and injury.
The weapons are inaccurate and unreliable,
so they operate in very small units to reduce
the consequences of accidents.

Extra info:
The grenades carried by the Thunder-bombers
need nerve and skill to use properly — or a complete
lack of fear and common sense! These grenadiers
can be devastating, but their explosive weapons
have a very short range. Grenades can also be a bit
wayward (to put it kindly) in use, and there’s no
guarantee that only the enemy targets will be blown
to bits! The Thunderbombers could easily blow
themselves or nearby friendly units to pieces as
well. They are also very vulnerable in melee and
will be rapidly overwhelmed by any enemy unit
that manages to close with them.
