When I originally made this thread, the intent was that you simply cannot use any other weaponry other than the item you choose.So if you selected the riot gear, that's all you get. So for example, if you stumbled upon a rifle laying on the ground, you couldn't use it.
Originally posted by Galan007Just 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.
[b]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? 😈 [/B]
Lucille. Easy to swing in a confined space, doesn't need to be reloaded, and the chance to miss is much smaller than with the python or the crossbow. Plus, blunt > sharp in this situation imo.
Originally posted by -Pr-The main reason I was thinking the katana might be better than Lucille is because if you start getting swarmed you can at least lop off a few zombie heads at a time with a single swing(which would help thin the swarm much faster.) Flip side, you still have to bash zombies individually with Lucille.

But the sword also has some drawbacks -- namely that it can get stuck in the zombies if you're not careful.

Constantly swinging a baseball bat is exhausting.
Same with swinging a sword, even a japanese sword.

i still think the crossbow would be a great choice but the problem is that its not effective against large groups of zombies at close range.
Infinite ammo cheat is nice, it's also a silent weapon which is good in the zombie apocalypse scenario, but reloading still takes time.

And it's the only indestructible weapon in this thread.
That too.

The katana was my second choice but I dunno, I just feel like Lucille would do better.

An exhausted swing is still better than a missed shot imo.
Originally posted by -Pr-You're comparing apples and oranges, with the crossbow you stay out of reach until the last Zombie falls, then carefully go ahead the moment you see one immediatly shoot him. Once you've cleared an area of a certain size there ain't much that can happen to you anymore, at least not Zombiewise.

Originally posted by StiltmanFTWThe Commonwealth armor can resist bites as well:
Hell no.Commonwealth armor has no feats.
Riot gear at least, on panel, *has* resisted a roamer bite.
And it also has forearm blades that can one-shot zombies:

So I guess it might be a little better than the riot gear, only because it has offensive weaponry built in... But that armor wasn't even conceived of when I originally made this thread, so the riot gear's what you're stuck with. 😛
