What is the difference between Grenade and Handgrenade...also stick and stickgrenade...is that where the enemy picks up the grenade and tosses it back for a kill? |

A grenade and a hand grenade are the same thing.
A stick grenade is simply a grenade attached to a stick. It makes it easier to throw. The Germans used these types of grenades in WWII (and in the Day of Defeat mod). It was nicknamed the "potato masher".
When the enemy picks up your grenade and tosses it back at you.......that's called real bad luck.

Axis go to the weapons page on dod stats...it lists the stick, stickgrenade, grenade, and handgrenade...so you need another explanation... |

I don't know the answer Quasi, but I did notice that only two people had Handgrenade kills. Kula Ras and Traveler. I figure either the name has been changed of the weapon after the stats had logged the first two kills or there is some rare grenade circumstance, like maybe throwing the enemy grenade back like you suggested.

That would've explained why it has such a low number of kills. All I ever do when trying stunts like that is loose fingers. Hehe.

Stick Grenade: the usual Axis nade
Stick: when an Allied solder throws it back
Hand Grenade: the usual Allied nade
Grenade: when an Axis soldier throws it back

We should have a game of grenade catch on TV 2 sometime for fun. We would just have to guess how long the person held it before launching it.
