www.harpoon3.com. Yes, nukes ARE enabled. Good hunting!
What nukes are enabled...how do you use them...what types are there...what kind of platforms are available?:drool:

No seriously the site makes very little if no mention of nuclear weapons. So if anyone out there plays this game give me an idea of how the nuke aspect works.

And thanks for the article.:thumb:

Thousands. Here is a link to our encyclopedia authored by Dan Hayes.

This is still a work in progress but should give you an idea on the scope of the DB2000 database. Very impressive and regularly updated. Covers platforms from 1979-near future.

Tons of nuclear weapons of all types. The model is effective and well researched.

Roger that, looks like I'll be getting it, as well, especially after spending some time with War Over Vietnam. I really like this style of gameplay, and I'm looking forward to seeing where it goes. :horse:

Nuke enthusiasts should seriously check out Mike Mykytyn's timeless scenario "BOOM!". You must control waves of B-52 bombers and successfully strike Soviet strategic targets in the Pacific coast with thermonuclear bombs and SRAM missiles, while at the same time manage the Alaskan air defence zone to halt successive Backfire attacks - and deal with a nasty surprise at the end. One of the best scenarios for Harpoon 3 ever, and one of the most downloaded scenarios from the HarpoonHQ files section.

Read about it on this Waypoint article: http://www.harpoonhq.com/waypoint/articles/Article_024.pdf
