Hi there,
Yesterday I was messing around with Stones and Fire Pots.
Managed to end up with some pretty interesting stuff, as you can see on the following GIFs.

Might be useful in a lot of settings (pyromancer / grenadier troops) so here is the XML for the weapon (improvable prototype).
From there you can probably do more of a hand grenade version as well.
XML:
    <Item

        name="{=3Wzhxkn1}Fire Pot"

        holster_body_name="bo_axe_short"
        flying_mesh="projectile_pot"
        mesh="projectile_pot"
        holster_mesh=""

                    LeavesTrail="true"
                    Burning="true"
                    AffectsArea="true"
                    AmmoBreaksOnBounceBack="true"   
                    AutoReload="true"
                    UseHandAsThrowBase="true" />
            </Weapon>
        </ItemComponent>
        <Flags QuickFadeOut="true" />
    </Item>
Note: play with "missile_speed" to make it easier for the troops to throw the pot. Below 16 it gets hard for them to do it while moving/charging.
