Would you survive a nuke?

[Syt]

Apparently I'm alive because they would hit Berlin, Hamburg and Stockholm, but not Copenhagen 

Very weird, given A Denmark is part of nato, B Sweden is not.

Probably Denmark is the attacker?

[Martinus]

I'm dead. Apparently they would hit Warsaw.

[Jaron]

No...

Yeah, if the Russians go with the Grand Tour on the eastern seaboard with Bomba city busters, I wouldn't fill an ash tray. 
If it's SLBMs off the coast, I better hope I'm at my parents' house that day, so I could live for a week with the radiation.

Even if Baltimore's not a strategic target as a city specifically, the Sovs would daisychain the Maryland landscape with a slew of SLBMs...Camp David, the Olney bunker, APG, Ft Detrick, Ft. Meade, hitting military, leadership succession and NCA targets.

I live in the innermost circle of even a Fatman on the city I live in. I guess that means I am toast.

Obviously nobody cares about the missles at Warrern AFB 40 miles to the east (though they are over a mountain range), and Laramie survives to become the capital of the new Militia States of America.

[The Larch]

If they only hit cities of 500k+ people, then I'm safe.

If anyone would actually bother to nuke Finland, I'd be suffering horribly from burns and die within a day.

Also, map sucks.

The Karelian Front has to be stopped somehow.

Yeah, it's rather simplistic.  It assumes nukes are only going after population centres, and even then will be targeted at the centre of downtown.

Edmonton is a pretty likely target - but not downtown Edmonton.  Rather, they'd be better off striking the eat end of town so as to hit the numerous refineries and other petroleum plants.  Or, they might want to hit CFB Edmonton at the north end of town.

Similarily it says Whitehorse would survive, with the closest strike being over a thousand klicks away at Anchorage.  Well that may be, but by possesssing one of the very airfields north of 60 that can support fighter jets it is probably a pretty valid target for a tactical nuke.

[Ideologue]

I somewhat suspect that state (and provincial) capitals would be mid-priority targets all on their own, particularly if targeting economic recovery was a factor.

Does anybody even use the megaton-yield bombs anymore?  I was under the impression that at least the US arsenal was mostly in the hundred kiloton range, and that the megaton yields were phased out over the course of the 70s and 80s.  Then again, I suppose the Russians might still use them since 60s-tech is still pretty advanced in Russia.
