Smashing it spills its contents over the target so you could use it as a chemist to knock out your opponent, by filling it with chloral, and then beat them to death with it. Another reason why traitor Chemist is so great. If the bottle's contents are flammable (booze bottles, for instance) you can follow up by setting your opponent on fire. | ||

While ranged weapons can be difficult to obtain, they hold a few significant advantages. Namely, utilizing a ranged weapon means that you are out of melee range; it is safer, and you are afforded far more freedom in your positioning during combat. Ranged weapons also tend to be more debilitating than melee weapons, generally doing more damage quicker. Their main flaw lies in a limited stock of ammunition. Ballistics require bullets that match the caliber the firearm takes, as well as likely requiring a paired magazine for loading said bullets. Meanwhile, energy weapons typically run off an internal battery that can be conveniently reloaded at several rechargers around the station. Regardless, you will more likely than not have to address the matter of ammo when using a ranged weapon, one way or another. | While ranged weapons can be difficult to obtain, they hold a few significant advantages.

To be good at combat, you must be able to survive an encounter with anything; Nuclear Operatives, Wizards, Assistants and such. While some may say that the best defense is a robust offense (which can be true in some cases), knowing how to protect yourself is a vital skill needed to be [[robust]]. | To be good at combat, you must be able to survive an encounter with anything; Nuclear Operatives, Wizards, Assistants and such.
