&gt;&gt; Okay, you're doing a fantasy world, not atomic physics. make that
&gt;&gt; instead of a nuke, a huge fireball that Bubba has been constructing
&gt;&gt; and massing for years, the equivalent of a large meteor strike.  BOOM! 
&gt;&gt; Instant miles of wastleand.
&gt;&gt; 

&gt;Let's see... I think the only thing left standing would be players in
&gt;the city who are members of non-PK clans.  They could then rat on
&gt;Bubba.  ;)

Why, of course!

But Bubba didn't PK them!  He merely used a generic MUD-tool (the
nuke) to obliterate a large portion of the land.  All the PK-clan
members in the area of course immediately died with suitable karma and
points awarded to Bubba.  The non-PK'ers found themselves standing in
a vast ocean of boiling magma with all oxygen consumed by the roiling
fireball above, and asphyxiated while munching on their well cooked PK
brethren.  Of course a few might struggle to the sides of the
devastated area, but by that time the rock would harden, leading to a
fine supply of life-like statuary surrounding the blast zone which
Bubba could make a nice profit on in the moaning lawn ornament
business.
