I have an atom bomb. Its the Fatboy with a boofed up explosion (I set it to like 10000) Doesnt have the mushroom cloud, but it sure devastates![This message has been edited by ArgonV (edited 06-28-2000).] IP: Logged |

I thought about it again - might be political inspired or whatever but still NO ! I really won't see such weapons in SDOE. Atomic winter, Fallout, Mass Murder thing just for fun ? No man !For what would you use this ? To kill everything on the map (40x40 miles) ??? No good  LK

Laika, its not the mass murder or nuclear fall-out Im intrested in when using the atomic bomb. Its the historic value and the fact that it hasnt ben done in any other sim. Plus, it just plain looks kewl. (I dropped it over water and the splash reached the upper levels of the atmosphere!) Nuclear (or Atomic) weapons themselves are bad and you (meaning everyone who has this idea)should be ashamed if you were thinking of adding nuclear fall-out and mass murder to SDOE.IP: Logged |

If bombing your enemy's cities is mass murder and we should therefore ban the types of bombs used, then let's ban all bombs in SDOE. Conventional explosives killed a lot more civilians than two atom bombs. What difference does it make how many bombs you use to do the deed?Fire bombing Hamburg and Dresden killed as many.

People tend to forget that this is a game of war (ie: war game simulation) and destruction is part of what takes place in war games (and real war) Also, the only people modeled in SDOE are the pilots and gunners. No civilians are in the game code. There for, destroying houses and buildings and such isnt really that bad cause nothing really gets virtually killed (except the pilots) Im reminded that there are cows, are they killable?IP: Logged |

Laika I personally dont understand why youre opposed to the atom bomb in sdoe. The game simulates combat, so is simulating a bomb that can kill a few dozen people morally acceptable while a bomb that can kill millions is not? I agree that its a political weapon and wouldnt have much value in the game. But if youre going to block out the fact that we're having fun simulating a war that took millions of lives in the first place then you might as well just block everything out.IP: Logged |

I agree, this is just a game and if nuking a harmless village with a few cows is bad, what about gunning a virtual real person (your friends) out of the sky,,Whats worse? You might as well make the game as real as you can, besides wasn't there a nuke dropped on Hiroshima? Read your history book folks, I believe this was still part of WW2 wasn't it? If you have ever played Novalogics Lightning3 you can arm yourself with 20 nukes and create new coastlines!! ,,,,Quite cool for a game, and once you drop them your so high up in the sky and the devastation is so great you cant hear the people scream anyway. Just think of them as your worst enemies you would really want to frag. But hey we are all entitled to our own views.IP: Logged |

Hey, you want politically incorrect, listen to this. My wife grew up in Richland, Washington where the Hanford project developed the plutonium Fat Boy nuke dropped on Nagasaki. The High School teams are called the Bombers and the school logo is a mushroom cloud. At sporting events and rallies they bring out a replica of the Fat Boy and everyone cheers.Well, she just yesterday returned from a big all classes reunion. She bought a brass Christmas ornament which is a mushroom cloud circled by about 20 engraved bombs! How's that for a good old fashioned Peace on Earth Ho Ho Merry Christmas! IP: Logged |

- as long as I know, we don't got citys in SDOE (like Dresden, London, Berlin or Leningrad), of course you could bomb the small villages in the game, but I dont try to bomb civil targets...I rather bomb target's like factorys or airfields and such stuff (of course this killed civil people too in the war). Know what I mean ? quote: People tend to forget that this is a game of war (ie: war game simulation) and destruction is part of what takes place in war games (and real war)
- "war game simulation" ? I see it more as a flight sim. So for me its more a thing of beeing able to fly better than other planes/pilots. Destruction is not the first thing for me (might be the second).

-- SO SICK ! I got a history book with some photos of Hirsoshima and Nagasaki... With these pics in mind I really would love to spit in their faces ! (imagine german schools would be named "Auschwitz", and everyone cheers when they bring in burned bones of jews. Thats horrible and macabre ! Thanks god we (germans) lost this war !)What else to say - hmm - Everytime I see that small Vietnam has won the war against big USA I cheer alot ! You too ? Well it's a bit too political for me now - don't take it too personal please. If you want the A-bomb, build one and enjoy. If it will be online standart I will do my best to bring down the planes armed with A-bombs (even if they're allied). LK IP: Logged |

-- Hmm, I dont think we simulate all aspects of the war, and this is good. We just simulate plane(s) vs. plane(s) or plane(s) vs. ground target(s). Plane vs plane is OK in any way. Ground targets, I can choose if I bomb civil targets or not, and I do not (I also don't shoot at bailed Pilots or try to kill sister Bessie).So now you know what I think, lets stop this discussion (I do) before it gets worse. Go on - talk about how to make a-bombs. LK IP: Logged |

ok, how to make a-bombs.You take 2 pieces of Uranium 235 facing each other. Put a chunk of C4 or TNT on the outside facing face of the U235. Attach wires to teh C4 and connect teh wires to a electrical detonator, so its a electronically detonated device. If u use non-electrical detonation the device WILL NOT go critical. When the C4 blows the U235 pieces will be pushed together with enoough force to make them supercritical, if the charges blow simultaneously and with enough force. This will make a simple low-yield fission device. The 2nd way of making a a-bomb is making an implosion device. This uses weapons-grade plutonium. For this one you need some tritium. I will not elaborate on the implosion device. Always wear a radiation sensitive indicator and a 'spacesuit' when working with radioactive material, and remember to decontaminate your suit when leaving the radioactive area. ------------------ IP: Logged |

If only making a-bombs in sdoe was as easy as making real ones. I got a how to make an atom bomb help sheet a few months ago. didn't notice that swiVet ^I^ had mentioned f 22. sorryIP: Logged |

(sprays fire hose)This issue was fought out on Pete's board long ago. It appears to evoke strong feelings, so I recommend we either drop it, or move it to Flame Wars. Don't expect to change anyone's opinion about whether or not it's moral in real life or appropriate in a sim. To implement a powerful bomb you'll have to alter the loadout file.

To make an SDOE A-Bomb... Put the Fatboy in your B-17G loadout.ppf file. Find the warhead of the bomb in the loadout.ppf file and change it to 10000 and make the sucker weigh 10000. Now make sure you start off at 30000ft. or you will be desitegrated.  IP: Logged |

Laika, think about this. If you had gone thru 5 years of death, destruction, and endless fighting and you had the choice to either send 1000000 of your soldiers to fight 1000000 of your enemies soldiers and drag the war out another 3 years and completely destroy your enemies homeland (thats what ground fighting does) and hope that the casualty list isnt too extreme or if you could end the war by killing less than 1000000 of your enemies people and risk VERY few of your soldiers and not totally destroy your enemies country... what would you do?[This message has been edited by ArgonV (edited 06-29-2000).] IP: Logged |

ArgonV - I don't know if this was right or not, I think this depends on your own view of the things. I read about Nagasaki and Hiroshima people, they still die today and get ill from radio-active-stuff there. However - this is the history, and I think it is and was not "funny" in any way. And now I never come back to this topic... LK801 IP: Logged |

I dont think that we should use nukes online, cos it would destroy precision bombing. they should be only used for offline fun or experimentation. still i think we would need new nuke explosion textures. no big fireballs. just shockwaves and mushroom clouds. or we could just drop the nuke thing all together. thank youIP: Logged |
