    Is there a way they could blow it up without making a radioactive cloud? “Power units” could refer the the radioactive bits or just turbines and/or alternators.

      They didn’t strictly mined the power units, but also the cooling unit, so… all of those are set up to cause a meltdown.

        I mean, if they want to they definitely could, but starting WWIII over this shit? That’s insane. (Not to mention the nuclear disaster)

            I definitely have no delusions of their competence at this point. I still hold tenuously to the idea they want to live.
