How about some highlights in the blood pool...the light hits the edges, and reflects the light back, blah, blah...it does resemble a liquid more.

It looks splendid, Pixote. I say go ahead with this.

By the way, has anyone thought about maybe making the Molotov Cocktail a Fire damage weapon (rather than have them use the explosive damage type)?
I second the motion, but only if there's not a major inconvenience for the weapon in doing so (the fact that fire resistance is almost always higher than explosion res. in most critters comes to mind). Throwing weapons are bad enough as they already are.

It kind of bothers me that during the Primitive Tribe's stimpack trading quest, you can determine that the stims are just brahmin blood and the trader's brahmin is described as weak, but you can't call the trader on his lie when he says he didn't make the stims. I want extra xp for putting two and two together.
I find this pretty interesting. And also, about this quest, I think that it would benefit from having an alternative requisite for finding the mecant's deception apart from PE 8, like science 60-80%. Not all characters have that hight PE that early in the game, and in my opinion that would be a good alternative so that more different types of characters have the chance of finding it. And also, it would even fit with Fallout's usual quest design philosophy (if one read
Per's Nearly Ultimate Fallout 1/2 guide, he'd notice lots of occasions in which it's said: "if you have this Ability score
this high, OR that skill
this high"... etc)
By the way, speaking of new quests introduced with the Restoration Proyect, I'd like to share with you an alternative "evil" solution to the grave robber quest at The Abbey that occurred to me last time I played. Not as evil as killing the burglar (which I suppose is considered evil, haven't tested it) but evil in its own way nonetheless. It would consist in the following: if your character has the Gravedigger karma title himself, he could simply teach the robber to do it without leaving a trace. You know, "Give a man a fish, feed him for a day..." and all that
Regards.
-Edit: typo-
. The sad part is that the Pyromaniac perk only gives fire-based weapons a mediocre bonus of 5 hp damage (according to Per's guide), which means almost no improvenet into making it a desirable weapon choice. Anyway yes, it always bothered me that molotov cocktails belonged to the explosive type instead of fire.
