Just eating my popcorn waiting for the whole shitshow to collapse. I just hope when their cold civil war re-ignites they don't use nukes on each other this time. Or at least that the fallout doesn't hit Canada.
As I recall, a couple of people from the Pentagon or other military agency wargamed a full-on (likely worst-case) Civil War 2.0, and the upshot was that "[tactical nukes] were used early and often". The outcome would be grim, to say the least.
Actually, if memory serves, it was our side that ended up using the tactical nukes. I think the wargame scenario was that the chuds commandeered a tank battalion and were terrorizing the cities with large artillery fire. Enhanced radiation weapons (neutron bombs) were used to neutralize the threat. It turns out that this is one of the only practical ways to stop a mass armored attack.
I am not sure I would claim any faction of imperial core to be MY side, it would be more like capitalist cartels fighting amongst themselves. Just because some of the factions are not absolute chuds doesn't make them less omnicidal planet devourers.

Sounds about right, the gun nuts would love to have tactical nukes sold in vending machines.
