and were to be distributed near German boiler rooms where it was expected they would be disposed of by burning, with the subsequent explosion having a chance of causing a boiler explosion.
If the plan was to disguise the explosive and make the Germans burn them along with the coal, wouldn’t it be smarter to disguise the explosives as coal? I mean that’s way less effort and far harder to detect.
Why would you burn dead rats in a boiler instead of just tossing it away? Pretty sure they don’t generate much heat and smell rather bad.
Furthermore, if the allied forces could get close enough to the boiler rooms to deposit these rats, why not just plant and activate the bombs right away instead of hoping for that rat burning scenario?
Rats will make their own way into a boiler room, or near it. Coal doesn’t run around and seek shelter.
These rats were already dead when they were filled with explosives so that defintely can’t be the reason. ;)
Suddenly RimWorld’s boomrats make much, much more sense
What about the boomalopes?
