Putting a few 100 rocks on course for earth all with different trajectories and arrival times is quite a doomsday game. Mars could be nuked but with 100s of big rocks, a few are going to get though and it will take only a few. It is MAD.

Just getting the ships in position to shift their orbits will take weeks to months. Meanwhile, nukes already hit. You'd only need 100km/s of delta-v, which is very doable at those timescales with a sub-ton payload.
