I'm not that good at math, but that's easily what... the square root of not gonna happen?

Even assuming you -did- manage to divert the whole river (You still have to block it from moving forward by the way), the river bed is going to be very wet. You just marched your armor into a death field.

they also through lot stuff in to dam it, plus river bed can be rocky. Which is more likely considering the water fall. [member="Ayden Cater"]

Yeah, but you're not by the waterfall. You're -way- upstream. That'll be sediment.

[member="Sarge Potteiger"] wrecking bar is all it take, then grenade in hole. Grenade will remover more weakened the sides of the river and making it break it own banks is very power full force. Has been known to cause land slides. This was controlled yes, but it not that hard to do.
[member="Ayden Cater"] not necessarily even up their, they would be still more rocky. A slit blocks the river up, so if it`s good moving river then the bottom tends to be some thing hard. As other wise the, the river would be deeper. till it reached some sort bed rock.

No... A grenade is not sufficient to move that much earth. Let me find a video for you.

There is a reason mining companies use thousands of pounds of TNT to move earth and rock.
And you're assuming that it is a fast-running river. I have been in plenty of rivers and most if not all of them have soft bottoms. And there is no evidence to suggest that the river running through Naboo is fast-moving. If anything, it appears to be a fairly calm river considering how long it took Obi-wan and Qui Gonn to nearly go over the waterfall's edge.

[member="Ayden Cater"] that`s not how it would work if it encased in the ground, as all things take the easiest route. Give me a minute or two and find and show you what I mean.

This is about what it would take to divert a river.

Note that that's about 100 tons of TNT. One ton of TNT has a blast equivalent of about 4.184 x 10^9 joules. The average explosive grenade is gonna have something like 2.4 x 10^5

Also, blowing one hole isn't gonna divert the river. You need an entire channel to actually divert the river's flow. So the river would still be flowing just fine.

one hole no, but this is a small explosive force under ground. As all under ground explosions, are more powerful than above ground explosions
Been part of my training course, why thing go bang.
How ever while I know this would work, as once the first lot explosion happened. It would brake the bank, and the river would do the rest. As that would have lot of kentic energy behind it. This would then carve it own route, how ever while I know this would work, I am happy to let bygone be bygone.

Been doing lots course on explosive things with gas recently, anyone think I like to use that knowledge
