But with the SGII ground scale (1" = 10 meters), putting the figures
"shoulder to shoulder" means that they are in fact standing *5-10
meters* apart. The lethal radius of today's 40mm grenades (which is
what most of today's automatic grenade launchers fire) and hand
grenades fall in that range.

Using today's realism as the measuring stick (always dangerous in an SF
game), you *might* hit two adjacent figures in base-to-base contact
with a single hand grenade :-/
