the best method. have a Drone equipped with something like a shotgun and its programs/softs tailored to shooting objects like grenades. And there you have it. you have an ADS

How do you think the adept power "Missile Parry" features into this. Although it specifically states that it includes grenades you actually don't get a defense test against grenades, what do you think one has to do to catch the grenade (and hope it's not on motion sensor activation)?

Maybe you can do a twirl around to fool the grenade into thinking it’s still moving, then throw it?

your videos are great.... the SR system is complex. Don't know what to think. All that iniative thing seems too much. I run a game and use only homemades rules based on SR Hongkong game and years of D6 star wars rpg's and i feel that i don't need to understand that system. But ... what you are doing here is truly inspiring. And i.love the work put in the Shadowrun universe.

So 'Right Back At Ya' is for Wireless and Motion Sensor? If it's a standard grenade, you have the whole rest of the turn to calmly pick it up and toss it wherever? Is this your understanding as well?

If it's motion sensor it will got off as soon as you move near the grenade. If it's wireless and user has DNI, they can detonate it as soon as you pick it up. So this one is only for timed or non-DNI controlled grenades, and only really useful if you are out of movement and there is no cover around, or if you have already acted this pass and the grenade is before you next turn. But otherwise, that is my understanding as well. The reaction times involved in this game makes, barring Surprise situations or being trapped or pinned down by Suppressive fire, timed grenades almost useless for anything except area denial. What the game does not really factor in is the seconds the grenade takes to actually land anywhere - if it did it would be like this: Bob throws a grenade with a target Jim has no idea where it is going, if he even sees it during a distracting firefight Jim can fire back or move away if he thinks he's being targeted, but he does not know The grenade lands, and blows up in the next initative pass, possibly bouncing off objects in a random direction. So to conclude: If you want a dash of realism, do not allow returning the grenade without the special reaction. The rules do not specify exactly when the grenade lands anyway.

Hey, if characters can just teleport around on their turn, why shouldn't the grenades be able to do that?

How about diving on top of granade, to reduce damage from bouncing blast wave?

That is an option and works the same as "Run For Your Life" except when you get to the grenade you can also drop prone onto it. The book makes this sound like a noble sacrifice but frankly, my troll adept could drop down, let the grenade Poof under his girth, and get back up to keep fighting. Not unscathed (probably) but far from critical. So with the right build it's not a bad move if your squishier teammates can't escape.

that move is called "Dive on the Grenade" -5 initiative and you play Steve Rogers, taking the blast of the grenade with your body (times two - as the blast is reflected from the ground and added to the damage value. In other words - try to soak something around 30 damage or so). You better have Edge ready to burn to survive this...

Does "Run for Cover" or "Lucky Cover" work for Grenade launchers? I found out the Hardway that "Run For Your Life" does not because they are heavy weapons and not thrown. I also wish more people would use the timer and not just the motion sensor option, would be fun to use magic fingers to have the guy's own grenade to chase him down.

I'm not sure why a grenade launcher means that you can't "Run For Your Life". Especially if it's a timed grenade being shot out.

Yeah, but there is a bit of language that Run for Your Life is for thrown grenades and area combat spells and not launched grenades. I just ran into that problem on one run.
