Inactive:

“ An extremely powerful weapon--essentially a hand-held nuclear bomb. Use it to activate the timer. Ten turns later it will explode, leaving behind a radioactive crater. The explosion is large enough to take out a house. ”

Active:

“ This miniature nuclear bomb has a light blinking on the side, showing that it will soon explode. You should probably get far away from it. ”

Notes

Use this when it absolutely positively has to be annihilated. As the name strongly implies, the mininuke uses a nuclear reaction to fuel its explosive power and will thus leave behind a deadly radiation cloud for several hours after detonation. If you plan on using a mininuke, take proper precautions against radiation poisoning.

• Deals damage in a 15x15 area i.e. 7 squares radius from impact site.
• Damage is 600 at the point of impact, decreasing with distance from impact.
• Does not release shrapnel (thankfully)
