Nuke the Nucleus?

[mrmike_49]

I told DiMA I wouldn't blow up the Nucleus - but I lied. So can I still do it? Any GOOD reason not to??

[OutsidR]

I didn't just to keep the peace............

The outside guards respawn giving you like more access to disciple/marine armor.

[mrmike_49]

so, looks like no reason not to nuke 'em!

i would nuke the nucleus cause of those weird ass children of atom fanatics alone

[GoreTiger]

There is no reason not to unless you're taking the COA's side. They are a dangerous infection to the island and been caught multiple times trying to spread the radiation mist and screw the original inhabitants of the Island. The COA's ultimate goal is to force everyone to accept "atom" by whatever means nessasary and the last thing they should have in their possession is a working Nuclear ICBM. What's most disturbing is the fact a former Enclave soldier joined them.

Don't nuke them, they may manage to enjoy it.

Shishkebab them.

The Island has enough problems to deal with but will eventually adapt and heal itself. Setting off the ICBM within the Nucleus would only add to the injury the island already suffers. (That ICBM won't go anywhere but inside the Nucleus itself).
Yeah, Grand Zealot Richter was Enclave once.

The Children of Atom migrated to Far Harbor so they were not the original first inhabitants. That honor belongs to the "Harbormen" who are the decendants of the original population.
However, besides the zealots .. there are good people living within the Nucleus .. (if you give getting to know them a chance). For that reason alone, I would not destroy the Nucleus.
But if all of them were on the verge of going all out to eliminate the folks of Far Harbor and Acadia, I wouldn't hesitate to "pull the trigger" myself.
But even for the Zealots, all of the Children of Atom obey the High Confessor and if peace is declared, then peace will prevail for everyone.

I talked with Lee once and listened to his personal story. I felt sorry for his losses and understood his bitterness toward the CoA although they had nothing to do with the fog becoming worse, Lee needed something to blame to help himself cope with his personal losses, but then the CoA preaching it was Atom's WILL pushed Lee well over the edge of tolerance to his breaking point..
