OMG!!! I checked How to make war our of the library and was hooked with all of it's facts... Wow, then I see your post about radiation directly from the book and I thought I had read it before. Anyway, yup radiation isn't as bad as people think and everyone who wants to run a realistic nation should read How To Make War

I think that, really, the radiation from one bomb isn't much. The radiation from 10 bombs isn't much, either.
100 megaton-range bombs? That's a whole other league. People just have some generally screwy perceptions about when nuclear winter sets in....
so, in closing: nuke that city, folks! one bomb or three or twelve won't make things all that bad outside a couple hundred miles of the blast site.
