Interesting! Using the Chinese nuke I'm fucked whether I'm at University, work, or at home. That's based on an attack on central Auckland, or Whenuapai Airbase.

That asteroid kinda sucks the big fat one doesn't it!

Sorry for being ignorant, but why would anyone nuke Whenuapai Airbase?
I thought it's common war policy not to nuke the ambulance?

You forgot to allow for the tidal wave, the high potential of the ring of 22 volcanoes around Auckland to erupt, or the vaporisation effect of the heat on the sea water ...

I'm guessing the radioactive fall out will probably kill you, just not immediately.

Just ride really fast.

lol, I was just thinking 'military assets'. Devonport, Papakura, Ohakea, Waiouru, Palmerston North, Upper Hutt and Burnham would most likely be toast.

"Military assets" - you mean the 1 ship navy , the no tank army and the no fighter plane air force , right ?

Needs options for air or ground burst and varying altitudes for the airburst option.

Waitemata or Wellington harbour would be a good option for a high yield underwater detonation. Make sure you poison the water table downwind forever when the particulates precipitate out of the very damp fallout.

The results don't show how terrain affects shockwave and the following firestorm.

2 Frigates, 2 Offshore Patrol Vessels, 4 Inshore patrol vessels, a Multi role landing ship, a dive tender, an oiler, a Hydro-graphic survey vessel, and 5 SH2G Seasprites.......

If I were to ride really quickly then there's a spot that's safe from the Tsar Bomba just outside Akaroa.

Some might call it...

awesome csi reference, someone bling the man for me, im all out!

but seriously, the only scenario where nz gets nuked (deliberately) would be when the superpowers have finsihed nuking up each other and the rest of the world, so we'd be fucked anyways! Ride towards the bombs, your end will come sooner and less painfully:2guns:

Can your bike outrun a 150Mph shockwave? :msn-wink:


Here's an image I found on Wikipedia about the size of mushroom clouds.

50 Megaton would have created one big mama mushroom!

Even large underwater explosions have been shown to produce negligible wave effects

c'mon Katman, surely you couldn't resist nuking South Auckland?

Hmm looking at that Ussr 500mt nuke or what ever it is it seems to do alot of damage I wonder how many they still have sitting around. I don't think it would take that many to blow the whole of nz to tiny bits. I'm just glad no one hates us enough to be bothered downing the money to nuke us haha

Or theory two: China will run out of land and food then wipe out a few countries to keep their population growing. If this is the case im heading into the bush to hide, guerilla warfare style :headbang:

America thinks its on top but China has waaay more people and wealth and China would wipe them out. As for NZ, we would run out of bullets before they run out of people (1.3 billion)
