Blow Up The City Airstrike Planner
Answer three questions. Walk away with a strike, not a wasted Nuke.
Use this planner before you open the shop in Blow Up The City. It does not invent damage numbers. It maps what you see to what you should fire, using Update 1.5 tools and the five passes.
Read how to destroy buildings if you cannot tell intact from ash. Read the airstrike tier list if you want letter grades instead of a flowchart. After the three answers, buy in the spend order.
Question 1 — What is still standing?
One house or a billboard. Fire a cheap repeatable bomb. Do not fire Nuke, ICBM, Tornado, or Earthquake.
Crane plus lot, or two touching mid-rises. Mid bomb or Attack Heli. Save spectacle.
A full street of walk-ups. Earthquake, Tornado, Attack Heli, or AC-130 if you own it. Pack NPCs only if you already wanted a crowd.
Bridge with buildings on both banks, or train beside houses. Nuke or ICBM if the skyline is still dense. Otherwise a wide bomb that clips deck plus lots.
Scorched crater. Nothing. Hop. This is the whole planner, honestly.
Question 2 — Whose server is this?
Private, intact. You may test Nuke, ICBM, AC-130, weather, whatever. This is the toybox case. Unlimited Cash is allowed here if you already bought it.
Public, eight players, still has a skyline. Repeatable strikes. You are racing. A 20-second Nuke reticle is how someone else steals the block.
Public, already a crater. Leave. Planner over. See cash runs.
Question 3 — Do you still need money?
Yes. Do not spend Robux except optional X2 Cash. Fire whatever you can restock. Follow how to earn cash.
No, I want a screenshot. Nuke on a private skyline, or ICBM if you paid 199 Robux for the orbital label.
No, I want to steer. Attack Heli (cash) first, AC-130 (149 Robux) second.
Pass overlay
If you already own passes, the planner changes only at the edges:
- X2 Cash: same targets, faster shop.
- Unlimited NPCs: pack the street before a wide tool.
- AC-130: prefer long intact rows.
- ICBM: prefer untouched private skylines.
- Unlimited Cash: ignore Question 3; you still must answer 1 and 2 or you will ICBM ash.
After you fire
Look at the crater scorch from Update 1.5. If the lot is dead, rotate. If the shop did not move, you hit ash or the server lagged — hop and report. Then go back to Question 1.
This planner will gain new branches when Update 2 names new strikes. Until then, three questions beat a fake calculator. If you wanted codes instead of a plan, the codes hub is still empty on purpose.
Print the three questions in your head as: mass, server, money. Mass is whether HP is still standing. Server is whether seven strangers already spent it. Money is whether you still need the loop from how to earn cash. Skip a question and you will ICBM a crater, Nuke a hut, or buy AC-130 when X2 Cash would have paid for the next hour. The planner is a brake, not a DPS sheet.
If you cannot answer Question 1 in two seconds, you are too zoomed in. Pull the camera back until you see whether a second building shares the blast. The planner assumes you can see clusters. Controls covers that camera habit.
Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers for airstrikes, cash, codes, Update 1.5, and the Update 2 teaser.
What should I fire on a fresh private city?
Anything. That is the test environment. Nuke and ICBM are for this case.
What should I fire on a public crater?
Nothing. Change servers.
Attack Heli or AC-130?
Attack Heli if you are spending cash. AC-130 if you already know you like gun runs.
Does the planner use hidden stats?
No. It uses target shape, server state, and whether you still need cash.
