How it works
The Nuke deals its 80 damage the moment it hits, across a 120 px radius: five tank widths in every direction. Tanks in the blast are also pushed away and upward.
About a second later the crater opens and a radiation zone settles over the impact point. It covers 70% of the blast radius (84 px) and deals 2 damage every quarter second, 8 per second, for 12 seconds. A tank that stays inside the whole time takes up to 96 more.
It flies like a normal shell. It counts as a heavy weapon, and Standard ammo gives each tank exactly one.
When to use it
- Clusters of tanks: the radius is large enough to catch several at once.
- Mind your own position: the blast and the radiation hurt the shooter and allies too.
