I have this in my static.jkl file

I relize this is very similar to the demonstration in the tutorial, but I was just trying to test this and see if it works.

Everything works fine except the blood. I have bloody.mat in my gob file, and I can't figure out what is wrong

It's because the flesh hit is creating +bloodcloud, not +sovietbloodcloud.

MONK: (reading from bible) And St. Attila raised his hand grenade up on high saying 'O Lord bless this thy hand grenade that with it thou mayest blow thine enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy. And the Lord did grin and people did feast upon the lambs and sloths and carp and anchovies and orang-utans and breakfast cereals and fruit bats and...'

BROTHER MAYNARD: Skip a bit brother ...

MONK: ... Er ... oh, yes ... and the Lord spake, saying, 'First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin, then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shalt be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thou foe, who being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it.
