Would you survive a nuke?

Brain, don't beat off to the maps, k?

As for my map, I would survive, but it doesn't take into account base strikes which would happen 15 minutes to the north of me. Wright Patterson, you just had to have the national AF lab and bomber runways, didn't you?

The bad news is that I'm dead.  The good news is that Philly, Baltimore, DC, and NYC would all be wiped out under a 5-city attack option.  So would be Boston, but I don't know enough about it to know how to feel about it.

You're dead!
Congratulations! You never saw it coming. Consider yourself lucky that there was no suffering. Not even the cockroaches survived

Dead southies? The world rejoices.

Assuming a Minuteman:

You're alive! ... but not for long.

The heat from the blast has caused head to toe second degree burns.You'll probably die within the coming weeks from radiation sickness.

However, if I'm at work, I'm 20 metres away from the main target. I would die when the missile nose cone hits me on the head.

Just wear a hard hat.

I'd survive a Minuteman, but anything above that hitting the center of the city and I'm dead from the radiation or burns (not the blast). 

Of course, I would think they would be nuking the air force bases, not the city center, and those are further away, so whatever.

It says I'm alive if they target all >100,000, but I guess it's census data about Columbia is wrong, because we have significantly more than 100,000 (and lot more if you count West Columbia, which nuclear planners would).

I'd hide in a refrigerator.

Now that stupid ass movie flashed in my head.

I'm really pissed at NYC right now.  Normally, if Jersey City were located all on its own in the middle of nowhere, enemy planners would take one look at it and assume they've already hit it.  However, they're going to hit NYC no matter what, and Jersey City is unfortunately right next to it.

Seriously, I'd have to assume I would get vaporized along with Fort Knox.

There went the Army's Human Resources.

Definitely dead, even under the most limited scenario set up. Apparently they're going to drop the Vancouver bomb pretty close to my house.

They only seem interested in hitting cities.   The big fucking air force base where they keep Stealth bombers is a bit closer, still I wouldn't be killed by anything less then a Dinosaur killing meteor.  When I was a kid they had some of the missile silos only about 15 miles away from my home,  I don't know if those would have been targeted.
