The Atom Bomb is the cheapest and least powerful nuclear weapon in the game. It is priced at 750,000 Gold.[1]
Launching

To launch an Atom Bomb, first right-click onto any surface in the map. Then, open the radial menu. Then open the Build Menu at the desired location and select "Atom Bomb". Launching a Atom Bomb requires one or more Missile Silos owned by the player launching it. The Bomb will then be launched from the nearest Missile Silo, assuming the Missile Silo is not reloading.
Missile's behavior
Once spawned from a Missile Silo, the missile will move first in the x direction (horizontally) towards the target location until the x location of the missile is the same as the target x location, then the missile will move in the y direction (vertically) towards the target location (there are random small x/y movements sprinkled in).[2] The missile moves four pixels per game tick. The missile is not influenced by below water/land. The Atom Bomb will be intercepted when in an 100 pixel radius of an active SAM Launcher.
Explosion
Once the missile meets its target location, the Atom Bomb will explode, irradiating all terrain in a 15 pixel radius and about half[3] of the terrain in a 40 pixel radius. The Atom Bomb does not irradiate any water. The Atom Bomb will remove troops proportional to land percentage taken; if the nuke irradiates 10% of a player's land, 10% of their troops will be removed (killed).
