You vs. The Zombie Scourge... Choose Your Weapon!!!

Just as the Walker outbreak reaches its crescendo in The Walking Dead-Universe, you are dropped right in the middle of Atlanta. You must pick one weapon... and one weapon only... To defend yourself from Walkers(and other people) for the rest of your life. Once you have chosen, your decision is final.

Weapon 01 - Michonne's Katanna:

*It keeps a razor-sharp edge indefinitely.

_______________________________________________

Weapon 02 - Daryl's Crossbow:

*Unlimited arrows.

_______________________________________________

Weapon 03 - Negan's Bat (Lucille):

*She cannot break.

_______________________________________________

Weapon 04 - Rick's Colt Python:

*You are allotted 30 bullets per day. There is no 'rollover' -- ie. you cannot stock more bullets than your daily allotment.

_______________________________________________

Weapon 05 - Glenn's Riot Gear:

*Full set of armor + Riot Shield. Nothing else.

STIPS:
*Again: You cannot use ANY other manner of weapon for offensive or defensive purposes, ever -- not even a rock off the ground.
*If you make it out of Atlanta alive, you then have to survive as long as you can with the weapon you have selected.

What is your choice? 😈

Smh. No classics like Rick's axe or Tyreese's hammer. I miss those.

I'd pick the riot gear, I think.

^ So you're going with 'the best offense is a good defense'?

I dont' watch the show so I have a question, how would the Zombies even infect you if you are in full riot gear? Their bites and scratches would never be able to penetrate the armor no?

If you get overwhelmed, it probably could.

If its survival the riot gear is the most efficient imo

Exactly. If dozens of Walkers swarm you, they will dig, scratch, pull, and bite until *something* gives. Eventually they could pull off your helmet or an arm guard, for example.

Yes. Unfortunately, it wouldn't be much good against the living...

Canonically, only bites have been proven lethal.

Governor's armored corpse still did get ripped to pieces, so it's better not to get surrounded by too many.

Wow, screw that then. Give me the crossbow with unlimited arrows.

You'd need a lot of practice with that, though. And it's easy to mess it up... imagine if the scope got broken off, for example.

Am pretty good with an AR, anything 150 meters or less am hitting it. So a hand gun shouldn't be any problem. The problem is the noise. But i should be good unless i just gun blazing.

Toss up between the Sword or the Bat. Only 30 shot a day,,,you can use up 30 shots pretty darn quick, and a crossbow is not a good weapon when surrounded. To slow on the reload. The Riot Gear would be good for when on the run but even if you get knocked down and the Zomz can't bite thru it they won't get bored and give up unless distracted off.

I'll take the riot gear. As long as you don't get stupid, that stuff will keep you in good shape indefinitely.

*Forgot to mention this in the OP:

For the purposes of this thread, you cannot 'camouflage' yourself with Walkers.
