Barrel (Strife)

Three explosive barrels in the courtyard of MAP05: Prison from Strife.

Three types of barrels exist in Strife: the metal barrel and the wooden barrel, both of which can be destroyed, and the burning barrel. The metal barrel upholds the tradition in Doom-engine games of inanimate, hazardous things, taking damage just like enemies and exploding when its hit points reach zero. Largely similar to Doom's barrel, they can be pushed around and their explosion inflicts splash damage on anything nearby.

The wooden barrel is a weak object that can even be destroyed with a single stab of the punch dagger, but does not inflict any damage itself. The burning barrel is just like its Doom II counterpart.
