What happens if your camp is in the blast zone?
If your camp is in the blast zone, it will be destroyed instantly, and you will die if you are in the blast zone when the nuke lands and detonates. Your camp can be rebuilt fully repaired with no material cost if it gets destroyed by a nuke, and you can just move your camp slightly to rebuild it.
Understanding the Blast Zone
To minimize the risk of death and camp destruction, it’s essential to understand the blast zone and how to protect yourself and your camp.
