"Atmosphere deprivation weapon" is only a term used in order to avoid use of the term "Nuclear Weapon". Creators of Homeworld were wise, careful not to insult anyone, not even by accident. In the mean time, EA insulted people of china, russia and all countries of middle east.
The fact is that in Generals Zero Hour, China Nuke and MOAB have almost the same damage potential. While in the real world, a nuke at that size can destroy an entire Japan or erradicate whole of Britain and Irland.
