Guest Aces Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 Both Threads and The war game are really fucking bleak. None of them compare to reading Children of the dust though. That book shit me up for months after I read it. Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/49470-threads/page/2/#findComment-1136440 Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaini Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 i remember being on holidays as a kid in county kerry, and getting a temporary card for the library there this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sadako_and_the_Thousand_Paper_Cranes fucked me right up. i reckon it probably still would, if i read it today.

Can't get enough. Always amazes me the extent to which the general punter can't seem to grasp the destructive power of thermonuclear warheads. If you look at how people (myself included) react to stark high-definition footage of the WTC 9/11 attacks... and consider how it deeply affects the human mind. Then put it in context and compare that to the scale of similarly man-made death and destruction that we may have been days, hours or even minutes away from over the 1960's and '70s. It's pretty head-wrecking when you think about it that way. Pretty incredible though, that we as a species harnessed, to some extent, the power of the sun - driven like a great deal of innovation by a need to maximise death and damage on an enemy during war. This reminded me of some old stuff I found a while back: http://www.dreamlandresort.com/info/nts2.htm and the crazy Ivan's with their biggest atmospheric detonation ever in 1961 - some vids at bottom - http://nuclearweaponarchive.org/Russia/TsarBomba.html booms.
