In a fantasy setting featuring Fantasy Gun Control, Medieval Stasis, and assorted other reasons why the culture would never develop anything even close to nuclear weaponry, there may be some form of magic attack so powerful and destructive that it is obviously a stand-in for nuclear weapons. This goes double if it leaves behind some sort of corrupting effect that lingers long after the spell itself is cast, a la fallout. Compare to how Automatic Crossbows stand in for guns. Kamehame Hadoken, Wave-Motion Gun, and Person of Mass Destruction are common ways of invoking it. Everything Makes a Mushroom is the usual result.
