Front 21

What is the effect of a high altitude burst?

Back 21

Explodes over 100,000ft, ionosphere disruption and EMP

Front 22

What are the effects of an Air Burst?

Back 22

Fireball does not touch the surface. Vacuum created by the severe blast causes radiation fallout.

Front 23

What are the effects of a surface burst?

Worst fallout, touches the surface

Front 24

What are the effects of a shallow water burst?

Back 24

small fireball, large waves and water contamination

Front 25

What are the effects of a deep underwater burst?

Back 25

similar to shallow underwater burst, with less visuals and more contaminated water

Back 26

Ready-shelter stations

Deep-shelter stations

Front 27

What is ready-shelter stations?

Back 27

Just in the skin of the ship, minimum shielding from radiation, allows you to stay close to your battle station.

Front 28

What is deep-shelter station?

Back 28

Low in the ship near the centerline, greatest shielding from radiation. Often removed far from your battle station.
