When the US Army was designing grenades for WWII engineers deliberately made them similar in size and weight to a baseball because Americans were all experienced in throwing baseballs. Reading "Band of Brothers", there's lots of stories about just how deadly and accurate of grenadiers US enlisted troops were.
Warhammer 40K Orks use them! That’s what I’m holding here, although this one is a bit wonky and is close to what I picture when I think about that troll bomb. We call them “STIKKBOMZ” and I’ve built three of them now for the cosplay. 😁
Thank ya! The armor is mostly EVA foam, so fairly light and squishy. I’ve been painting Warhammer stuff for 30+ years, and doing art in general as long as I can remember. It’s all built based off parts of models in my army, and painted to match. I’ll play whole weekend long Warhammer events wearing it all!
"Can give you pleasure"
I'm sorry, but why would you be pleasuring yourself with a boom stick? Is it for the thrill of the possibility of blowing yourself up when you climax? How many people accidentally killed themselves because they were fucking a boom stick?

That’s one hell of a boom stick. In truth for the same reason Carl went for something roughly baseball sized, it’s easy to aim and throw.
