Explosions and Nuclear Warheads
When an explosion occurs, we can generally distinguish three zones:
|
zone DH for Direct Hit. This is the spot where the bomb falls. |
|
zone KZ for killing zone. This is the area where the effect of the bomb cause the most casualties. |
|
zone CZ for casualty zone. It is the zone of the explosion blow where all the fall outs of the explosion are dragged. |
Several types of explosive heads coded AA (used in rocket launchers) exist up to J (for mini offensive grenades). Each of those are defined by the power of fire and its power of penetration.

NB: May I remind you these are the minimum targets to be achieved on 1d10 to penetrate shields and
that A means automatic !
For nuclear warheads (great eh!) the same principle applies except that we add up a fourth zone called
GZ for Group Zero, no need to translate that.
GZ is situated closed to DH and indicates you an ideal spot for roller blades on a vitrified surface.
