Target when these bombs explode what is the ratio of blast?or will it be different?
like for in woods?can u hide them in woods and throw from there?does this affect the chance of backfire,as you could hit a tree branch? http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/confused.gif

Let me compose a "common sense" sort of answed instead, to give Target-sama, some time to work on the game instead of talking about it...

The radius will probably not differ, and judging by the pictures, it's sufficient to get perhaps four or five guys at once (in tight formation). While trees may impair the bombs in the same way they impair arrows, a "bounce-back" effect is probably beyond the capabilities of the STW physics engine.

That's pretty much exactly what happens Anssi. The trees offer you a tiny amout of protection from bombers, but not much. The best protection from a thunder bomber is to kill him from a distance. Getting disposable troops into melee combat with them is also viable because the bombers will either get cut to ribbons by the enemy or blown to bits by their own bombs.

The big question with sanda bomas is this:

If you are attacking uphill, and have your grizzly sanda bomas hurl their cargo at the enemy on the hill top, will their bomas, once they land, roll downhill right back at them?

Shouldn't there be a treeburst effect when the explosion's in the woods? Or are these primarily blast, not fragmentation (and hence, no fragments ricocheting off trees and what-not)?
