Learn about the Stielhandgrenate, a German grenade in Medal of Honor: Allied Assault, including its 4-5 second fuse delay and throwing mechanics.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    The Stielhandgrenate, or "stick hand grenade, model 24", was a primary type of German high-explosive grenade.
  2. 2
    It featured a thin sheet-metal can with a TNT charge mounted on a hollow wooden handle, providing leverage for easier throwing.
  3. 3
    To arm it, unscrew the metal cap on the handle's bottom to expose a porcelain bead attached to a cord.
  4. 4
    Pulling the bead activates a friction igniter, initiating a 4- to 5-second delay before detonation.
  5. 5
    Later variants replaced the metal head with a concrete or wooden charge container.
  6. 6
    The Eihandgranate 39, or "egg hand grenade, model 39", was a smaller, egg-shaped German grenade.
Tips
  • Grenades are thrown, not shot, and throw distance can be controlled by how long you hold the Fire button.
  • Grenades detonate on impact with an enemy.
  • Grenades bounce and roll when thrown.
  • Enemies can pick up and throw grenades back at you.
  • Dogs can fetch this grenade.
  • Using a secondary weapon will throw the grenade with an underhand toss, useful for going under obstacles.
  • Grenade explosions release a small amount of shrapnel that causes minor damage and triggers hit reactions in AI (Artificial Intelligence).
