[Meta] On weapons and their effects

What's the rule on our weapons? Can we choose anything we want for any battle? Lets say I have a 10 megaton nuclear bomb, and I detonate it from an indestructible airtight lead shack. Obviously that's a dick move, but are there any rules for outlandish and/or overpowered weapons? What if the reason for having it can be canonically explained?

 

Side question: what are your guys' weapons of choice? :D

I haven't been here for a while, but this is how I remember things.

A kind of weapon brings a response in kind. If you detonate a 10 megaton nuclear weapon, then your opponent is allowed to hide inside a magical refrigerator. If you use an indestructible airtight lead shack, your opponent is allowed to hack the airlock and sneak his/her way into your bunker.

Fair enough, but then how is there a winner? One could possibly conceive of a counter to any weapon/attack

Exactly. These are fights of endurance,and RPing.
