Actually, those were written by MathesonT, not me.  I'm happy to host them 
though as I think they are quite good.  With regards to Combat Experience, I 
haven't yet found or created anything remotely satisfactory.

Correct.

Sort of.  Simple explosives don't cause frag damage, only concussion.  As 
far as range, the explosive's effective range does increase, but it isn't 
necessarily doubled.  The amount of damage you take depends on your range 
from the detonation and the force of the explosion.  If you run through the 
procedures step by step a couple of times I think you'll better understand.

If you have any more questions, don't hesitate to ask.
