Sequence charge

Sequence Charge
Used extensively by the Dark Jedi Jerec in his bid for power, the sequence charge was a very destructive explosive, similar to a land mine.

It has two possible usage modes. The primary mode, similar to a time bomb, would explode about two seconds after being placed. The secondary mode, more like a land mine, could be placed and left indeffinately, only to explode when a person came near.

As stated above, stormtroopers did use this device, but it was also heavily used by Rebel, and later New Republic, agent Kyle Katarn.

It was best used around corners, so as to get enemies when they rounded the corner. But, the device could be attached to any surface, and would work well underwater. A popular use for close quarters combat is to run up and attach it to an enemy using the delay mode. The enemy would then run away, usually towards other enemies, only to have the device blow up.
