On the theory of Lizzy having Todds child, it is possible. That would mean if she got pregnant right before the event, she would be around 6 months along. If it is Sauls it would be 4 to 5 months along. If Lizzy is as big as Pete said she is, the there is a chance it is not Sauls at all. I really doubt that, but who knows, Kc has his ways to mess with us.
It would be 7 months. It's early December now, the event was early May. One would presume the very last day they could possibly have conceived would have been May 7...though that is to presume that Lizzy had enough wits about her to not have sex as the world around her crumbled.
This would mean her morning sickness would be just about concluding at the point she was just starting to show signs of sickness in the podcast.

A combination thought just occurred to me:
We've been trying to figure out what Kimmet's plans are for LA and why all the recon and etc. If the plan is to send a nuclear strike into the most strategic area in LA then great! Zombies all die!
But now that Saul has a Sat phone and can call, what if he learns of Kimmet's plan to turn LA into a wasteland and he has to try to convince them to stop because Lizzy is there and preggers?

You picked up on a comment I've been reflecting on, as well - that Lizzie was close to the inside leadership and not treated like a slave. What you're saying is possible. Although, let's keep in mind that Lizzy is a PhD psychologist. She could be playing them in order to survive.
One other out there possibility is that somehow Scratch thinks Lizzie's pregnant with Angel's child. Since he's "family," she might have her own reasons for ensuring that Lizzie is treated well for the baby's sake. I know, I know, it's out there, but isn't that what these threads are for - throw it up and hope something sticks so that you can some day say, "I called that!"
I like this (where's our little thumb symbol?)
The only thing I would think differently about is not nukes...perhaps another type of bomb(names elude me)..i could see a situation with Saul outside the colony, with the colony surrounded....and planes flying overhead....i dunno, something like that.

I think a nuke would be to risky so close to the Fort, but some sort of other weapon would be cool. I see a situtation where Saul and Lizzy are espcaping the city just as the bomb is dropped in the background, ala The Millenium Falcon espcaing an exploding Death Star. I just now thought, and maybe it has been discussed, maybe the soliders are trying to find Zombie hot beds to then perform flyover bombings or attacks.
Anything in particular you are trying to recall? There's Fuel Air Thermobaric, GBU43/B MOAB, GBU-57A/B MOP and of course everyone's favorite, Napalm.

Not necessarily... With Ground Zero II, pick a target, pick a yield and bombs away. The B53 "Crowd Pleaser" the largest in the US stockpile had a nominal yield of 9Mt and would still have been in the arsenal in 2009. (The last was decommissioned in 2011, at Pantex, of course.) You could "sterilize" 90% of LA with three by targeting Anaheim, Lynwood and West Hollywood. I checked the fallout paths, assuming that the wind would drive it inland and Irwin would be in the clear.
Sorry if I'm hitting too close to home there for you LA.![]()

Hey, get a load of this. Guess who started writing again and has a spot in the fan fiction subforum?
Anybody else think it would make more sense to firebomb or simply carpet bomb the area? Maybe I'm over-estimating the power of a nuke, but regardless I feel like if the fort wasn't immediately taken out by the blast, the giant cloud of nuclear downfall would make it's way to the fort.
The problem with fallout paths for the southrn california area is it can be very eratic at times. We can have a strong coastal wind to a desert wind blown out to the ocean the we lovingly call Santa Anas. As we have found with wildfires that burned hundreds of thousands of acres just a couple years ago, the wind is no friend to us in times of need here in southern cali. Now granted a ground burst set up would supposedly release less fallout but the resulting fires in surronding areas would add to what little fallout there is.
Now there is the natural barrier of the San Bernardino Mountains and Angeles National Forest. Figuring that the commander at Ft. Irwin would take into consideration weather patterns and such i could see some smaller well placed nuclear devices used or delivered. Low yield bad boys (Kt range more than Mt) that would let surronding radiation disappate quicker save for the exactly ground zero for any devices. I think I do agree with heavier non-nuclear weapons as the after effects may be easier to control.
Plus there is the idea, why use nukes to clear one concentration when this seems to be nation wide. It would take too many weapons even small ones to do the job.
Kinda a cool link for any of you Nuke heads out there.
