Fallout tactics: Canyon City

This mission was surprisingly well-fit to a granadier. Nearly every moment offered a "behind the fence" solution, what made it oh-so-more easier then my usual "snipe them out" approach.

Some tips:
- Flash Granades can be used to move single targets a few step away, what can make them get close enough to another target, saving you some supplies. As granades run RLY low here, you should go for that.
- Plasma granades have a very large radius

The other weapon to be used here is the Rocket Launcher for its single-shot, single-aim, splash damage chance. No need to go big, use the regular explosion rockets.

Also: the towers here remain "hostile/enemy" when turned out. Mleeing them even with a deathclaw (turned off they're harmless) take immense amount of time, but with Power Fist they die soon (regular damage is 1-9, criticals go 20-30).

At two places you need firepower: underground against the melee-bot, and the pacification-bot at the #6 compound.

I was left after this mission like 10 granades (5 napalm which r probably useless, 5 flash, 1 emp, 4 plasma gr), but it absolutely worthed it, AND some extra can be bought in the general store. I also suggest to buy power armor for everyone at this point if you did not started that earlier, and buy the electric rockets. In the next mission you'll need ambush-firepower FOR GROUP, so it'll be useful, unlike in the last mission.
