The Ultimate Survival of the Fittest

Started by Mindship2 pages

First impression: leaning toward the dragons. They have on their side numbers, individual size/strength, intelligence, flight, tough hide.

Humans with swords and such? Might as well fight with barbecue sauce.

I see no reason to think the Z-virus would effect the dragons.

Dreamcatcher aliens: gunships/dragons, same result.

The Mist creatures...too many unknows about them. The big one seemed slow as molasses; and I see the little ones doing about as well against the dragons as the PB flyers.

The Preds, I think, would last the longest against them. To really beat the dragons, I think the Preds would have to devise a global strategy, and I don't think they have the numbers to do that, even with mini-nukes. The Preds could maybe get a pyrrhic win.

The Xenos...depends IF the facehuggers could infect enough dragon eggs/babies; and even if that did begin to occur, I could see the dragons catching on real fast and nipping it in the bud, fire-saturating caves and such.

Hell, the dragons may even be smart enough to let the other factions fight each other, to make their work easier in the long run.

Whether the Z-virus can affect which species will play a huge factor in this battle royale..,

I for one don't see the zombie virus affecting them all but it's really unprovable either way. I can see the Xenomorphs though becoming any species but still don't see them winning in the long run. I mean a few Predators managed even in defeat to wipe out thousands of Xenomorphs and even though the human population is so staggering I still see the Predators wiping them off the map either way.

The Z-Virus didn't work on a bird so it won't work on Dragons. You don't see any rabid animals running around in 28 days later.

And the point I raised about the facehuggers getting baby dragons would simply make a fast growing race of XenoDragons. And by logic considering how huge a predator alien was, imagine an amped Dragon or a XenoDragon Queen. I reckon they would dig into the Earth as well and build their numbers.
Don't dragons need to sleep in RoF? Nests of sleeping dragons would get attacked by giant facehuggers and drones.

Depends! 😄

It was once theorized that Jupiter was the largest theoretical size a gas giant could be (without collapsing into a small star).

We pwned ourselves over that, already.

True, but it exists in this (fictional) setting. IIRC Jupiter is about 1000 times larger than Earth, right? If so, at a gravity 5000 stronger than ours those Dragons wouldn't even be able to walk never mind fly.

You make valid points and I feel the Xenomorphs are a strong contender but see this coming down to the Predators and dragons.

I see the dragons literally raping facehungers and being unaffected by something this small trying to implant eggs into their mouths.

How big were Dragon eggs in RoF?
What I was saying was the initial facehuggers, being transported by drones. Will have to target baby dragons first and take them. After even one gives birth to a Queen, it will result in a giant XenoDragon Queen giving birth to giant facehuggers. Rinse and repeat. All they need is one dragon egg.

I never recalled the facehuggers changing sizes I always thought it depended on the size/body type of the infected body.

Each race is teleported on a planet 5 times the size of Jupiter. The planet is eerily similar to earth with the different climates and what not only on a grander scale. There is a human population here of roughly 30 billion. They are about as advanced during medieval times with swords and what not. They are the x factor.

Dragons (Reign of Fire)

Xenomorphs (Alien/Aliens)

Predators

Creatures (Pitch Black)

Creatures (The Mist)

Aliens/Mr. Grey (DreamCatcher)

Zombie virus (28 Days Later)

The Predators are the only race who come on their own for the ultimate hunting game.

Who survives and wipes out the others in this survival of the fittest ?

The Ultimate movie monster is The Thing. But out of these... I'm going with either the Xenomorphs or the Dragons. Some of the creatures in the Mist might not be wiped out either. That things that yanks the kid out of the back room when the mist first comes and that giant thing they see in the car etc.

If the predators came in force maybe they could win but... I really doubt it. I don't see them ever having an intention as prosaic as 'winning' save their own hunt.
