Subject: If the UNSC had the NOVA bomb then...

Posted by: opogjijijp
How many NOVA bombs were made? It implies that there were a few on Reach, however only one is said to be taken,

Do we know that only one was taken? They could have taken them all, but only that one was re-armed.


Which is why I said only was said to be taken, not only one was taken. Still, there is no proof either way so far.

NOVA bombs are powerful, but they aren't 'planet destroyers' as such, sure they'll render the planet inhabitable but they won't do much to the actual planet. also they aren't anything to do with the forerunner, they are probably something like a three-stage nuclear weapon, where the nine nukes act as the first and second stage (fission - fusion) which is used to set of an almighty huge third fusion or fission stage. look up the tsar bomb, boosted fission weapons, etc. and you'll see what i mean, just on a much bigger scale. also the NOVA was a prototype, so there was only one as far as i have read.

NOVA bombs could have been game changers potentially, but simply up-arming their ships with many many more nukes would have changed the playing field as well, UNSC Everest had something like 105 shiva missiles, thats potentially a small covenant fleet right there, for that one cruiser.

Online Gaming's pretty much like a zombie movie. There are a lot of mindless idiots roaming around but you find some survivors on the way.

Specifically, ship-to-ship nuclear warheads.
