This looks pretty cool. I'll read further into it when I get home.

Also, I would like to note that a nuke in space wouldn't be terribly effective. Most of the damage caused by a nuke is due to extreme concussive force, extreme heat, and radiation. There's no air in space, therefore no concussion farther than a couple of kilometers or so, heat would dissipate too quickly to cause any damage, and it's safe to assume that most ships are radiation shielded. A direct hit could probably fuck some shit up, but the damage caused by a nuke detonating any farther than a kilometer or so would be nill.

Now, if you nuke a ship while it's on a planet or something, it would be a different story.
