Evi, Just trying to get you to justify a flame weapon. I know it has a devastating effect... on humans and your own building and the vehicles in the street. My argument is, at best tissue burns aren't going to stop the flesh biters and proximity dictates he who throws flame either dies by the flame or will fall to the enemy.Quote:

Best weapon I think would be a shotgun with buck shot more chance of a head shot. Not very good for long distance and the ammo is heavy and bulky. A carbine weapon would be second hopefully something bullpup and .223 caliber because the rounds are more readily available. Next would be a semi auto pistol 9mm would be good for ammo but the chance of penetration into the skull is low with a pistol. Check the stats. Good long knife for close hand to hand type situations. Ka-Bar or equivalent. Mostly as last resort. Hatchet or tomahawk is a good mallet weapon as well.
There are several weapons which will work. In a perfect world you can prepare. He'll look around your house right now and find what's good as a weapon. Broom stick if sharpened and used properly will work as a stabbing weapon. Knives in your drawers. You may not have quick access to a firearm so in an improvised situation you have to use what your given. Golf clubs, bats, tire iron, etc. The list can go on and on. Fight your ass off and search for some kind of firearm. Hell a 22 or 380 will get the job done if you hit the right spot. Survival situations mean you have to do just that survive. When you are in a fight for your life, stay away from the Lethal parts and go for the vulnerable.
I was once told by my dad. Your best weapon in your arsenal is your brain. Your next best are your feet, when it comes to a fight you know you are unable to win or can get out of. Dont start a fight if it can be avoided all together. Its best to walk or run away and use the grey matter between your ears to figure out a winning solution.
Several of us have been trying to figure out if Tommy actually died from the fall or the flames. Anyway, a flame thrower in THIS infected world would probably work because the creatures aren't the Undead. If they can be knocked out or show fear then it goes to reason that Greek Fire would also do some real damage.Quote:

Pretty good breakdown of weapons as well.

Being the superior in close quarters combat is what keeps you alive. Distance weapons are needed as well but toe to toe is when you need the real advantage.
I guess this is what Burt's bedroom looks like.
