Hedgehog Grenade

The Hedgehog Grenade is the standard Chimeran hand-held anti-personnel explosive.

The hedgehog grenade when thrown will hover upwards into the sky at about man's height then fire all it's needles in every direction impaling nearby enemies to the ground and walls, potentially killing reckless users. More effective than fragmentation grenades as it will explode in mid-air instead of on the ground. In multiplayer the hedgehog grenade will take longer to go off.

Resistance: Fall of Man

The Hedgehog Grenade is acquired during the first playthrough in Grimsby - "Fate Worse Than Death". It is also employed by the Chimera as a landmine in some parts of the game.

Chimera 8 420 317 — The Hedgehog Grenade in *Resistance 2*.

"The Hedgehog Grenade is a Chimeran anti-personnel munition. It is thrown like an ordinary hand grenade. Upon landing it springs up and expands into a spiny cluster. At its "kill height", the Hedgehog fires spines in all directions with enough force to pin targets against nearby walls. The effect is especially deadly in confined quarters."

―Intel on the Hedgehog from both Fall of Man and Resistance 2^[src]

The Hedgehog Grenade retains the same features.

Multiplayer

In Co-op, it is the starting grenade for the Medic.

“	Things that go boom... Yeah, that's right, this is Norm with another "things that go boom" bulletin. The "Hedgehog Grenade" is a Chimeran anti-personnel weapon - throw it like an ordinary hand grenade. But once it lands the Hedgehog springs up and expands into a cluster of spines. As it detonates the Hedgehog fires its spines in all directions - these things'll shred through the thickest armor! And they're extremely lethal in confined spaces--so aviod using them in situations where people could be harmed. Remember, if you find something that goes boom be sure to let me know. Never give up, and never give in. - Norm Tap the Hedgehog Icon to Quick Throw at the reticle, or drag the Hedgehog Icon to your target and lift for Targeted Throw.	”
