Painted a distinctive red color, Explosive Barrels can be seen in many Campaign missions. As you may guess, when shot, these Barrels explode with tremendous destructive force, setting off any other barrels in the area as well.

The damage done by Explosive Barrels is quite considerable; setting one off in the middle of a squad will likely kill the entire squad if they are close enough, and Mechs take significant damage from them. They will also thoroughly dismantle any buildings or other structures nearby, which can be good or bad. It is worth noting that barrels are world objects, not simply triggers; it is possible for units to miss the stationary, bright-red object, and also possible for them to not detonate with a single shot if the unit is particularly low-damaging, such as Medics, Engineers, or low-level Infantry.

It is not considered advisable to order the unit to get closer to improve their chances of hitting.
