  • How to unlock Potato Masher

    Only grenades and your other explosive devices count toward this achievement. Hitting a grenade on an enemies webbing also counts. Any time you are confronted with a group of enemies use a grenade to kill as many as possible. Below is a video on a quick way to boost this achievement.

  • Also the nickname for the WWII Stielhand Grenades
  • My Career Stats Explosive Kills 101 and I have no achievement :(
  • Also i just got another grenade kill and it said 50/100 WTF
  • I don't know what counts and what doesn't. When I checked my stats I had 179 explosive kills but no achievement. I got it an hour or so later but I don't know why I got it then and not before!
  • whats up with this one..i got 114 and no dice?
  • Do not look at explosive kills. Explosive kills are a total of all kills you have which include kills from shooting red barrels, charges and tanks that happen to kill enemies. The only things that count are grenades, trip mines, land mines and tnt kills.
  • In reply to comment #6... F1 grenades count. I got it whilst doing an OverWatch mission
  • As I'm sure is obvious, even though the cheevie itself has a picture with a "50", you do need 100. I got it through a three-for-one land mine kill.
  • I've done a video showing how to get 5 explosive kills every 10 seconds. Enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmBaTkmIeVg
  • so should i shoot the explosives or throw them into enemies?
  • Lame achievement. You won't get this through normal gameplay. You won't get this with two normal playthroughs. The game is encouraging you to find an area, throw a grenade, and reload the level. Pretty annoying.
  • Main page video, notice the level, notice he takes a step left everytime he reloads. Two key points to doing this even faster than the video links in the comment above. Load the level, take 1 step to the left, you should have 1 F1 grenade and it should be loaded by default, dont move the right stick AT ALL, just hold RB, count to 4 (assuming you were quick at moving left) and throw, 2 for 1 right there. Not the end yet, now the second that explodes, hold RB again and releasre, should be the stalen thingy (potato masher grenade) its lighter or something so actually goes over the wall instead of infront, kills the person behind the wall... 3 kills. Restart, repeat, ????, Achievement.
