lets talk about bombs of every type and their capabilities here. Ok I'll start with the A/nuke bomb. Here is a web of the Mk-53 "hydrogen" bomb. The power of these beast are vast. Look how many parachutes they used to drop it. And they had something similar on ICBM launchers and well.

The nukes in Starcraft are very useful yet can only be used in specific situations. Not to mention it's hard to keep a ghost alive long enough to paint the target.

The redeemer is actually named after a church next to Epic Game's office in Raleigh. Apparently they just called the BFG after it. And it blows people up, 'nuff said.

In Russia it was called "Kuzkina Mat" (literally translated - mother of a man called Kuzma), a name derivated from idiomatic expression "pokazat Kuzkinu mat" (to show Kuzma's mother, to give smb. his gruel). Khruchev used it at some international conference (I guess the one where he was hitting the table with his boot) in reply at some suggestion of action or action aimed againsted USSR. In a month after the conference this nuclear beast was blown and it was made purely to demonstrate the power of USSR then and it most of the witty people summed up a and b, so the bomb got a new name. And the blast wave went around the globe for one time at least.

Jackal, I guess no. This image seems to date back to the beginning of the 20th century

Nothing beats the Tzar Bomba:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tzar_bomba

The explosion had a radius of over 40km and was 64km high. Third degree burns in 100km distance and blast damage even at 1000km

thats one hellacious bomb. You people crack me up you know that :lol:

@Airmoran was that an actual movie? I never heard of it. The Fission Bomb aka the "Midas" (I think was the code name for it), in Front mission 3 was awesome. I'm sure some people remember that. It had the same effect of a nuke but it was "environment safe" meaning no radaition and such.

I wish I could make a real-life quake3 rocket launcher and rocketjump to work :cool:

But what if someone accidently spills coffee on your work translocator, or your cat eats your home translocator? :eek:

See it doesn't matter if someone spills coffee on my rocketlauncher, and a cat or elephant couldn't eat my rocketlauncher, but they could eat a rocket acccidently. (I don't like cats)
