Ripped from the F3 forum, nuke your town and see the result. Luckily Im out of range of every weapon mentioned. Well, except for the pesky asteroid impact.

I nuked Sydney. Interesting, I thought the area covered would be a lot more. The Tsar Bomba seems to be the only bomb that does significant damage.

I agree, although I wonder what the damage would be over time, after radiation storms and such.

My town is so small that even a 140KT nuke will obliterate it :sorcerer:

Wow. Tsar Bomba could completely remove Montreal from the map, and not from radiation, from actual shockwave damage.

The 21kt won't cover my city, but a 140kt would obliterate my city and several of it's popular surrounding cities (including some of the richest, like Atherton...) as well.

Our Mid-Peninsula area is one of those places where you have many small-medium towns/cities clustered together that most people think of as a large whole.

Still gaming with my 9900k/2080ti/32 ram. One day I suppose a game may inspire me to finally upgrade. Maybe.

Initial casualties in Nakasaki 39,000, Hiroshima 140,000 due to the firestorms, and that was the smallest device used. Total secondary effects due to radiation damage and subsequent cancer increase not known.

 

The blast area does look very small, I would have my windows blown out if I happened to be inside I might survive, although it would be a good idea not to be downwind of the particle cloud.

That is all.

 

Fortunately, everything else except the Hiroshima payload would reduce my town to burnt post-apocalyptic husks.

 

As for my uni, well, Tsar Bomba seems to do the trick, heh.

if they nuke norad, i'm safe up to the 50 MT thingy. same with schreiver AFB (which is where they run the GPS system from).

comrade taks... just because.

Effing asteroids!

Isn't NORAD completely useless after targeting technology improved sufficiently to ensure a direct hit, which it is not designed to withstand.

 

They might as well have built it out of straw for all the good it's going to do.

They can use it to track Santa.

the tesla bomb catches me barely. everything else I'd be able to see the fireworks from the nearest hill.

Pay at least some respect to the world's biggest bomb. I mean, other than Hades.

immaterial, it is still a large base and a fairly secure one with the sole exception being large, well targeted ICBMs. nobody is really sure how accurate soviet missiles are at this range, either. NORAD is mostly on standby now anyway, but it is still a good target.

They should just nuke Iran, right? Am I right?

I live in London, which is a pretty big place. Yes the 50 megaton effort destroys it fairly comprehensively, with the tertiary effects covering the entire M25 (the orbital motorway, most of which isn't actually in London).

 

OTOH, Little Boy, at a mere 15 KT, only zaps Westminster and a few outlying areas. I'd probably be faraway enough to see the mushroom cloud and catch radiation sickness.

I live close to DC, yet only the Tsar Bomb would obliterate out to where I live. Hell, it would almost reach Baltimore, and that's just the thermal damage!

 

And yeah...damned asteroids.

"Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger."

"I have also been slowly coming to the realisation that knowledge and happiness are not necessarily coincident, and quite often mutually exclusive" - meta

If the nearest big city was bombed, I'd be in the outer damage circle at Mk28; I'm in the second inner ring with a Tsar Bomba, in the initial blast radius with a B61 and an Asteroid impact takes out the entire state.

 

IIRC a physics professor said that the radiation from the smallest bombs would still probably kill us where we lived.
