Actually this could that the form of rocks. Project Thor was an idea where by 3m x.4m tunstan rods could be dropped from orbit using guidence fins and a seaker guidence. The kinetic energy was tremedous!!! So Ortillery would not need to be NBC, you could just drop rocks, remember meteor crater? For that matter a large group of small objects, if they started out big enough to last through reentry would do the job.
