So there's a mention about molotov cocktails in the Halloween Ganger stat block (SR4A 282) and Arsenal (83 and 20). They differ in damage (4P vs 5P), but everything else is basically the same. They deal fire damage, are resisted with half Impact armor, and act like a throwing weapon with ranges based on your Strength.

Do they affect a single target, or multiple targets (like a grenade blast)? If multiple, what's the radius of the explosion look like? Do they scatter? Does distance from the blast point reduce DV or not?

(I don't think there's a definitive answer, but I'm curious to see how everyone else handles molotovs)
