Re: IDEA!
Its a tough issue. On the one hand, gernades are cool, and every single storm trooper I've seen carries one (the tube on their backs). But on the other, star wars is all about laser fights. When your squads happens upon a group of guys using a building for shelter (say they're taking cover behind a corner) in bf2 the first thing you do is pop out the nades, and thats the end of that. But without nades, the squad would have to use tactics to take them down with blasters. Which is really the reason the tantive IV battle was so intense, every corner had to be assualted manually. I call that fun.
So I'm not sure what, but something should be done to insure nades don't spoil the fire fights.
