Explosive barrel

Explosive barrel is a special scenery item. Sometimes it can be found in Resources stashes on the map.

Description

When shot, it explodes, dealing 500 damage to nearby Infected, units and buildings.

Soldiers, Lucifers, Snipers and hero units can pick up the barrels and carry them to place them in a different location. When unit carrying barrel dies, it triggers an explosion.

Strategy

One barrel can destroy multiple Dwelling of Doom without triggering reinforcements. Pick up barrel with starting soldier, drop it near dwellings, move away and shoot it. This will make village weaker and provide some wood and stone for colony.
