((He's had the motivation for a while, but only now does he have the means. In other news, oh gog Grey Boy is a bastard. To everyone.))
((There's a reason Jack likes him. Although if you're talking about what I think you are, that might have been an accident. And it's going to save Jack's life.))
((Forever.))

((Necromancy is kinda time consuming.

Right now, we have completed our objectives and are focused on chasing an Urban Executioner and a Shadow Walker. The UE is somewhere inside the building, the SW is near some air traffic control towers beyond the nuked repair pit.))

HMR stands for Hazardous Materials Requisition, not Horrible Massive Ruination, though I can understand how one could get confused.

((Oh, and some guys are going to use a the sniper's (ShadowWalker) hijacked spaceship to hunt him. They're boarding and preparing it to fly right now. Said sniper might be able to shoot it down with nuclear rounds that bypass its point defense lasers, though.))

(( Not really 'bypass' so much as 'continue to explode despite critical structural loss'. And honestly, it exploding out there is *much* better than it exploding after hitting the hull.

It goes boom inside, and this is a self-contained incineration device.
It goes boom out there, and this is a space craft. It is designed to deal with radiation. The main question is how well it would weather the blastwave.... what's the yield on the LESHO nukes? ))

((I think around an 1/8 - 1/2 megaton 1 at the outside considering the size of the gun (i.e. man portable) meaning the rounds are going to be relatively small))

(( You people need to learn to research.
From the OP:

Quote
18: LESHO rifle

Ammo: Single Round. Extra rounds are 3 token each.
   Range (assumes non-nuclear ammo) Melee:-4 Short:-3 Medium:+2 Long:+5  Extreme:+5
   Stat requirement: Strength 15
   Special: Suicidal kickback: If the shooter has less then 16 strength there is a 25% chance of hurting themselves
   Description: Take a railgun, modify it for extreme accuracy, fit it to fire a quarter kiloton shell,    fit that shell with miniature maneuvering rockets and a computer to control them. Then link    that computer to a targeting system in the railgun so that it can guide that hypersonic chunk of    metal to a target a mile and a half away within a 2 inch margin of error. That's the LESHO Rifle.

((So if that spaceship has any armor worth covering a spaceship in, and if you manage to clip the LESHO round further than a few hundred meters (preferably at least a kilometer) away, you stand decent chances of surviving the blast. Whether or not you survive the ship plummeting out of the sky afterwards is "up in the air", heh. :P))

(( That's the weight of the shell, not the size of the nuke. I think. The standard shells are non-nuclear, I know that much, so I assume that is the weight of the shell, which would be... no, way higher than that... how dense is this shell XD? Pretty sure the yield of the nuclear ammo hasn't been specified yet. Perhaps PW means for that to be the yield of the nuclear ammo? Because dear lords is that ludicrously heavy otherwise.))

((A quarter kiloton is 250 tons. I'm pretty sure that any nuclear bomb weighing more than a lance of MBTs is not fit for being fired through anything even closely resembling something that can be called a "rifle", much less if its maximum range is a mile and a half.

In other words, yes. A "kiloton", while a valid unit of mass measurement, is primarily used to denote TNT equivalents, especially in regard to weapons.))
