Notes
- It is possible to obtain infinite copies of the book because of a raider in the Bethesda East offices who respawns every 73 "game time" hours. This resets his inventory and the book can be taken from him multiple times.
- An image of this book is copied onto a slide for the Vault Dweller's Survival Guide. The slide's identifying number is VDSG Plate #619-58.
- It is likely that "recipes" is an analogy to combat tactics involving the flamer, presented in a humorous format of a cookbook.
- This is the only skill book that is unique to Fallout 3, as it is not present in earlier games and does not return in Fallout: New Vegas, due to the Big Guns skill being collapsed into Guns and replaced by Survival.
