Actually a Hydrogen bomb is an Atom bomb, or using the correct name Atomic Fusion. It uses Fission (see Atomic) reactions to initiate a Fusion reaction, so far there are no nuclear weapons that use only Fusion.
Also I'm confused AK, are you trying to say that the term Nuclear Weapon apliies only to Hydrogen bombs, it applies to all weapons using Nuclear reactions, be they A bombs (Fission) or A=>H Bombs (Fission to Fusion).

You're getting a little carried away with this grammar nazi thing. First with the "Nod, not NOD." That was entirely opinion, they've spelled it both ways in various C&C games. Then there's the thing where you want people to use the word texture instead of skin, when in fact skin is often the appropriate term for the occasion. Now you're trying to tell people that there's no such word as "nuclear bomb," when in fact both atomic and hydrogen bombs are types of nuclear weapons.
You're a good modder and I respect your work, but it's ridiculous to constantly try to control the way other people write.

Aircraftkiller | You can't call a hydrogen bomb an atom bomb, because it isn't one.
|
This is a side issue, which I am not going to take.
The critical point is he called it a "nuclear warhead"
Aircraftkiller | calling them all atom bombs or nuclear weapons is the equivilant of calling Hum-vees a tank. They're similar, yet they're different.
|
Taking your analogy for a second:
Hum-vee = Atom bomb.
Tank = Hydrogen bomb
Vehicle = Nuclear bomb.
In other works "Nuclear Bomb" is a term which encompasses all of the other names:
- A-bomb
- Atom bomb
- Hydrogen bomb
- Fission bomb
- Fusion bomb
Hence SuperFlyingEngi was correct when he said "nuclear warhead".

Okay, we will sort this, AK, your right, Atom bombs aren't thermonuclear, that term refers only to A=>H bombs. However, the term nuclear weapon refers to any warhead using nuclear reactions as it's primary destructive yield.

Aircraftkiller | Whatever that's supposed to mean.
smwScott, isn't it just equally ridiculous to post a reply telling me about what I'm saying? I don't see what you're trying to accomplish.
|
Not trying to accomplish anything, everyone else added their two cents, just figured I'd add mine. I usually don't get involved in this stuff and shouldn't have this time, it doesn't really affect anyone, just a little bit annoying.

Sir Phoenixx | We never said that General Motors made Jeeps, nor did we ever say that they made Wranglers.
|
Aircraftkiller@Renalert.com | The GM serial number refers to General Motors, who builds the Ranger (Jeep Wrangler) in Red Alert for the Allies. Keep in mind that the texture is not completely finalized yet and made be upgraded by myself or Darkblade in the future.
