Molotov

"The Molotov is an incendiary device which detonates on impact. It is lethal to humans and other organics but synthetics are very resistant to fire. As a modified proximity device, it can be placed as an explosive trap."

- In-game description

The Molotov is a throwable fluid explosive useful as a weapon or temporary barrier. As it is fire-based, it can fend off the Alien.

Description
Molotovs are primarily used to deter the Alien. When throwing one, try to aim at its feet or at its body. If the Alien is too close when the Molotov explodes, Ripley may be killed regardless or be knocked over and take some damage.

Motolovs should not be used at point blank range as it can instantly kill Ripley, this can happen in tight corridors if the Alien suddenly emerges around a corner. Molotovs are not particularly effective against androids, but the fire will deal damage to them over time.
