| A mobile, robotic explosive is used to mine open areas. They have a limited range, but their mobility allows them to be set down in an area and they disperse themselves. Like standard landmines, they bury themselves just below the surface and lie waiting for someone to step on them. Unlike landmines, they can also move periodically, making their recovery nearly impossible. | | A mobile, robotic explosive is used to mine open areas.

| A round bomb used by smugglers and mercenaries. They are essentially a casing which contained a shaped charge of baradium. The use of baradium made the weapon extremely dangerous, even for the being who threw it, as the element was highly unstable. Depending on the size of the charge, a thermal detonator would essentially atomize all material within a spherical area centered on the charge itself. Anything outside the range of the blast sphere remained virtually untouched. | | A round bomb used by smugglers and mercenaries.

The [[ACC]] versions are considerably tamer, often causing most combatants to become violently sick rather than causing death. | | Developed more than 4,000 years before the [[StarWars:Galactic Civil War/Legends|Galactic Civil War]], this form of explosive device released a chemical poison into the air when it exploded.

Explosives are small hand-held weapons that typically emit a powerful blast of energy. Usually thrown towards the target, some can also be placed in a spot and remotely detonated.
Detonators
A mobile, robotic explosive is used to mine open areas. They have a limited range, but their mobility allows them to be set down in an area and they disperse themselves. Like standard landmines, they bury themselves just below the surface and lie waiting for someone to step on them. Unlike landmines, they can also move periodically, making their recovery nearly impossible.

Grenades
A grenade which covers a 4m area in a bio-adhesive glue which can effectively trap anyone in the target area. It dissipates in only 15 seconds.
