After that, Bruce was determined to find out just who Krell is and dedicated his time to that pursuit.

When the war does start, while it does not indicate it clearly, I get the distinct impression that Bruce slips into the future as the first bombs detonate in the distance. So it is not clear if Bruce is indeed dead.
4th Edition sets the new War Date in 2017, 12 June for the Nukes flying, followed in September for the Asteroid impact (as if we couldn't screw this place up enough by ourselves?).

There's also an out take of BEMs discussion with his aid as they were begging him to evacuate. During that he tells them that their time is almost up and it's too late to evacuate, much less make it to prime base. He just sounds tired and resigned to hand the load off to the project and join his family. Whether he slips off or not? Correct, Unclear.
