You can also use a regular helium balloon. This doesn't seem like much of an acomplishment. The launching, and detonating of it is the most key, and hardest part.

Well there is tons of ways to launch it. U could launch it by hand, or u could build a mini catupuld.

Maybe you can plant it on top of enemy base doorways/steps and camolage it. Maybe then you can use a rock or slingshot to pop it from a distance. I dunno :blink:

you could install a motor on a clip, attach that to a large, say, weather balloon, then use it to drop water balloons via remote control. if you wanted to get really elaborate you could install fans on it.

You can pretty much ignore the times on that, I rarely ever have Xfire on when I play. I should, though.

for like $80 you can get a helicopter type thing with 4 roaters, and a camera in the middle. I don't know if it can hold the weight of a water balloon though. I say stick to soakers, and balloons.

exactly! the idea of a water nuke is absurd. If you compare a soaker to a gun, a water nuke would be like a huge splash of water with the cubic feet equal to the interior of a large house. But hey, I took a wile to create the real thing

Water "nukes" will never work good, you won't be able to use one right in a war unless you are hiding above them. What works better however than a large ziplock bag is a very cheap trash bag. The ones you normally wouldn't buy because they break too easy. It's ok that they break too easy, that's what you want. It lets the bag actually break. If you used a more expensive trash bag it wouldn't break and only really hurt who you hit it with. I don't recoment trying this stuff for safety and practicality reasons, but if you want to, go ahead.

you would have to carry the thing in a box or omething. That much water would rip the bag apart with the help of gravity before you had a chance to throw it.

Water nukes never will be useful any way. You'll get beat terribly by most anyone with a gun.

What if you took a Monster Rocket, Froze it's check valve, then strapped a huge amout of water to it such as balloons and bags. Then alunched it in the enemy's general direction. With the frozen check valve, you should be able to pump it enough to get the water off the ground.
