GILCHIRST, XEXO (AP): Xexo, havng perfect a new weapon of mass destruction in the Shin-Rikai, is selling off its stockpile of barium fission bombs.
The BFBs have a two-mile payload diameter. They explode in an immediate quarter-mile radius, leveling anything within that half-mile circle. The bomb then sends radioactive particles into the air, spewing them through two miles. The bomb effectively kills everything within that circle in under 20 seconds (some bombs have been clocked at aprx. 12.5 seconds).
The Shin-Rikai, being much deadlier, proves that fission weaponry is on the way out and the BFBs are obsolete, although not much more information is being released on that at this time. The entire stockpile of 200,000 barium fission bombs are going at a wholesale price of +C900,000 apiece.
VITAL STATS: BARIUM FISSION BOMB
Payload Type: Radioactive
Payload Radius: 1.05 miles
Primary Detonation Radius: .541 miles
Length of Bomb: 20 feet
Weight: 1,900 lbs
