      modify the boulders on those maps so it happens.
     
     
I think the reception tower in nuernberg needs to be fixed so that the
boulders/barrels are destructible (at least some of them). It is
impossible to get the artifact keys otherwise. (Specifically, the tower of
water and the tower of electricity.)

No, boulders should not be destroyed by fire, but by physical attacks (eg.

I remember somebody saying something about bracing and then attacking the
boulder/barrel? i.e., the default action is to roll them, you have to
explicitly use ready_skill melee weapons to destroy them.
