Are nukes good??

This is the ultimate question. Are nukes good. Well I'm gonna answer that today let's look at the price tag first

Nuclear reactor : 10K rare and 30k cash

Nuclear rocket: 35k cash and 15k rare and 1.5k metal

Nuclear bomber: 30k cash 10k rare and 15k metal, 250 manpower

Nukes are expensive and have a blast radius to kill but it's not large . Nukes are pretty much a waste of time and resources. I would recommend air and naval and armour and some infantry to help. Plus if the province u nuke has a unit u own in it I.E a commando well.. it's gone.

Nukes are mainly used to stop good stacks from what ive noticed espicially if they mixed their stack correctly to defeat Air and Armored with a mix of both mech infy and Mediums

... And if the defender has at least one AA, there is a good chance to knock out that bomber down- as I did twice in a row in a recent game ...

I usually don’t use nukes. They already cost a LOT and are only good if you use them on a huge stack. In 1.5 it costs even more, so I would never make nukes in that version.

Nukes are status symbols that say I can afford to build them and I will use them if you annoy me. Try flying your family around the map in a nuke bomber to impress your followers and terrify your enemies

And as Restrisiko pointed out in another thread: ... 'In my experience in this game it's much more efficient to build and

use swarms of level 4 rockets instead of nuclear weapons' ... also nuclear reactors become targets for sabotage ...

I build nukes when I have way too many resources. I don't build nukes in 1.5 though.

It's been a VERY long time since I used nukes, and they really only really come in handy if you have a boatload of resources late-game (post-40 days). It's best if you use them on doomstacks as nearly nothing can escape from a nuke (MAYBE if an AC runs fast enough it can outrun the radius), but, as others have pointed out, it deals friendly fire, so it's not really worth it.
