Gaiaterra: Elysea's Conflict/Nuclear Storm

The Nuclear Storm is a superweapon structure made by General Tsing Shi Tao and later operated by the Castanic Nuclear Division. It is the ultimate superweapon the general can build and the strongest superweapon in Elysea's Conflict that can only built if all buildings are made and all upgrades are purchased.

Overview
When Aquilans revealed the ultimate nuclear missile defense known as the SDI Cannon, Tao started to take the new weapon seriously as this means Aquilan Forces now have complete immunity against any type of ballistic missile strikes, be it a tactical or a full scale one. Although he did manage to rally Lurensians to protest against installing such cannons on Lurensian soil, he was increasingly cautious on the trend of the Aquilan Army building a temporary SDI Cannon in skirmishes and creating a second Aquilan missile defense line with such cannons. Since Tao did not figure out a way to have an ultra long-range weapon system that can outrange the cannon except his mobile artillery units, he decided that the way to defeat the cannon is to overwhelm its detection capabilities so that a small percentage of nuclear missiles will do acceptable damage. Hence, he proposed a superweapon platform that can fire multiple SLBMs simultaneously: the Nuclear Storm. Soon, The Empire somewhat achieved Mutually Assured Destruction on-par with the horrors of the past, the Embry apocalypse.

The Nuclear Storm is a giant SLBM-launching platform superweapon which has a giant hexagon shape, two storage buildings connected to a concrete wall, including a small watchtower which is also connected to a moderately sized steel platform housing four spherical fuel tanks. A huge rectangular bunker housing 13 SLBMs with advanced launching systems is also present near the building complex. It consists of two parts: a control center and a launch site. The control center monitors the condition of the missiles and controls all activity conducted in the site. The launch site consists of 13 Dong Feng SLBMs fitted with approximately 500 kiloton HEU warheads sitting on its movable launch crane. To prepare a grand barrage of nuclear SLBMs, each SLBM has to be filled with fuel and have its nuclear warheads installed as well as running a few checks which is painfully long even for just inspecting one single missile. To launch the missiles however, the operators have to key in the launch codes given by Tao or Fraya with some identification process before proceeding to press the big red launch button. When the missiles are ready to launch, the SLBMs will rise up while being connected to the launch crane. Then one by one the SLBMs are launched and fly towards a large target area. The missiles will inflict very high damage as there might be other missiles interloping the destruction range. In the end, what is left in the target area is just nuclear dust.
