Only problem with that is NPC’s think that crowbar/potato etc… is a viable counter to mini-nuke. Has anyone one had the eventuality of: {  
npc attacks with \_\_\_, but you block it with mini-nuke.  
mini-nuke is damaged.  
from the west you hear a BOOM!  
your ears ring  
you are deaf  
mininuke explodes  
you died.  
}  
yet?

No, but I have had the securitrons in lab rooms explode next to the mini nukes. That was a bad day for Captain Horsecock. He’d been doing so well too…

A crowbar, doesn’t matter if makeshift or not.  
Defend yourself with it, attack with it, kill for food, smash stuff, break into houses for shelter/loot, break out of houses when running away, open loot crates;

So much stuff you can do with a crowbar, and it’s so easy to obtain!

And what to you need to make a stone pot to boil water?

The power…of rock.

My Manhack.  
After my last one died thanks to bears. I got another one, this time I named it Joel.  
He’s like a dog, except the dog flies and has wurly spinning blades of death.
